To get rid of odors while cooking fish, add 2 tablespoons of vinegar (any variety) to 2 cups of water, then simmer it in a small saucepan while the fish is cookingWays to Remove Fish Smells Fish smells can be tackled a number of different waysTry simply leaving a small bowl of white vinegar by your burners if you're cooking on the stove top, which help to absorb the particles in the air that can cause smells to linger If you're cooking in the oven, try lining your baking dish with aluminum foil so you can easily discard any fish-cooking remnantsBoil Lemon Water to Get Rid of Fish Odors These remedies should help keep fish odors to a minimum while you're cooking, but if they're still there when you're done, try this trick Bring a pot of water to a boil, and squeeze in the juice from about two or three lemons, and toss in the rinds for good measureBoil Spices or White Vinegar Continue boiling for 20 or 30 minutes, or until your fish smell is completely goneYou can also try tossing cloves, cinnamon, or nutmeg into your stank brew as well Some people recommend boiling your white vinegar, which does do a pretty good job of removing the fish smellThe only trouble is that then you've got this vinegar smell hanging in the air, which is just weirdUse a Spoon to Remove Smell From Hands If you've got the smell of fish, onions, or garlic on your hands, try rubbing them on a stainless steel spoon, or even the stainless steel divider in your sink, underneath cold running water.
