Today I cooked with garlic and the one thing I hate about it is that it makes my hands smell for days! ew >.< Some one told me lemon, so I tried that. It worked for maybe 10 minutes..untill i washed my hands -_-''

It's totally gross, some one help?

So that next time I know better, and use a pair of gloves before chopping up some garlic =/

thanks

  1. rubs your hands on stainless steel (I&#039;m not kidding!)


  2. Wash your hands with vanilla.

  3. Take a piece of stainless steel cutlery ( I use a knife ) and hold it so that all of your fingers are touching it and then hold it under running water for a few seconds. I don&#039;t know how, but it removes the smell.

  4. Oh, no. I&#039;ve made that mistake.

    A good quality scented handwash after baking soda may help.

  5. lemon juice or baking soda

  6. If your sink is stainless steel, run your hands all around the sink as if you&#039;re cleaning it. Or find something made of stainless steel and rub your hands over it.

  7. Try tomato juice, if its good enough to get the stink of a skunk off, its good enough for garlic.

  8. ah quite a dilemma there lol

    right well what you do is rub your hands on wet stainless steel eg, rub your hands on the kitchen sink whilst water is running over them and it should help to reduce the odor

    good luck :) x*x

  9. with soap

  10. Before cutting Garlic, small quantity of vinegar is used.

  11. After I cut onions or garlic, I simply rub my hands up and down my stainless steel faucet. It works!

  12. wash your hands with toothpaste

  13. lemon juice
