Baking soda can do an amazing job of absorbing unpleasant odors and neutralizing the air in a room. If you’ve recently cooked with garlic and find that the smell has lingered in your kitchen (or other rooms in your home) longer than you’d like, pour about 1/4 cup (32 g) of baking soda into a bowl. Place the bowl on a counter and leave it for 2–3 days.  At the end of this time period, the garlic smell should be gone. If you’re concerned about your fridge smelling like garlic, you can just leave an opened box of baking soda in the back to absorb bad odors. Leave the open box in the back of your fridge overnight and, by morning, the garlic odor should have vanished. If the garlic smell remains after you’ve left baking soda in the fridge overnight, clean the interior of the fridge to get rid of the smell. First, remove all of the food from the shelves and drawers in your fridge. Then, dampen a sponge with vinegar. Use the sponge to wipe down all of the interior surfaces of the fridge. This should get rid of the lingering garlic odor. In general, vinegar is a great cleaning agent and deodorizer. Fill a pan with 2–3 cups (470–710 mL) of tap water and heat the water to a simmer. Then add a few cloves, an orange peel, and 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks. Let the homemade potpourri simmer for at least 15 minutes to fill your kitchen with a pleasant aroma that will cover up any unpleasant garlicky smells. If you don’t have spices on hand or prefer the smell of citrus fruits, try simmering 1 sliced lemon, some orange rind, and a handful of mint leaves in water. Select a bowl from your cabinet and fill it with 1 cup (240 mL) of white vinegar. Vinegar absorbs smells from the air around it and can clear the air in your kitchen (or any room in your home) after you’ve cooked with garlic. By the time morning comes, the bowl of vinegar will have gotten rid of the unpleasant garlicky smells. If you don’t have vinegar on hand, don’t worry. You can use coffee grounds instead. Fill a bowl with 1/2 cup (64 g) of freshly ground coffee and leave it out overnight.
