I chopped a rather smelly onion last night for dinner and now my hands reek of onion. How do you get rid of it. I have washed my hands a million times, have taken a shower and even used a body scrub on my hands and yet they still smell like onions. :censored: How do you get rid of the smell?

Try lemon juice!

rub them on stainless steel. I don't know why it works but it does.

Why would you WANT to get rid of that delicious, wonderful aroma?

baking soda paste works great.
I've noticed that if I freeze the onion for 30 minutes (just until cold) or leave it in the fridge, it doesn't transfer much odor to my skin.

I've used a mixture of course salt with a little water to scrub the onion smell off. It also works after cleaning/preparing fresh fish.

That's my suggestion as well, it always works for the garlic smell.

I recommend using a cleaner on your stainless steel if it leaves an odor. Stainless steel does not mean self-cleaning.

diesel fuel will effectively mask the onion smell. :bolt:

That is why I like to wear gloves when I prep meals.

I was my hands with antibacterial Dawn dishwashing liquid( I get it at the Dollar Tree - $1 for a large bottle) right after I cut onions or garlic. It usually kills the smell right away.
If it doesn't completely work....a bit of lemon juice rubbed on them will finish it off.

Time to go dig in the garden or planting beds. Good 'ole dirt removes odors too.
