Despite the fact that onions are rightfully considered one of the most useful and unique vegetables, their smell cannot be called pleasant.
Its aroma is especially strong when it is stored in the refrigerator in a cut or crushed form.
Unfortunately, to get rid of the smell of onions, it is not enough to simply remove them from the refrigerator. More effective measures are needed.
There are several ways to solve this problem. All of them are very simple and accessible, as they involve the use of the most common products.
1. Rice
You need to pour some rice into a small cup or plate, put it in the refrigerator on any shelf and leave it for a day. After this time, there will be no trace of the pungent smell.
2. Lemon juice
You can use either store-bought concentrate or freshly squeezed juice. Simply wipe all surfaces in the refrigerator with this product to restore its freshness.
3. Citrus peels
Many people use dried citrus peels as a natural air freshener. They are also quite effective in eliminating the smell of onions. You just need to spread them on the shelves of the refrigerator and leave them there for a while.
To avoid unnecessary trouble from the unpleasant smell, it is better to use the onion all at once or use a container with a tight-fitting lid for storing it.
