If your sink is stainless steel you can just use that. I used to have a stainless steel double sink and would use the centre wall between the two sinks to ‘wash’ my hands after working with onions, garlic or other odorous herbs and veggies.

What?? To some of the answers.
I think it’s a cap/cover for a hole where an additional water line/spout could come out. But okay. Rubbing my hands on it next time I see it somewhere.

Thank you for sharing this tip…Very interesting. I’m gonna try this next time im cooking at my parents as they have a stainless steel sink. Can’t believe I’ve never known this trick.

While I have found it to be effective at mostly (if not totally) removing the odour, the actual scientific data on whether the stainless steel trick really works to get rid of stinky garlic hands is sketchy – though chemistry tells us that it might well work.

NERD ALERT: Stainless steel is an iron alloy with a minimum of 10.5 per cent chromium by mass. This layer of chromium is what makes stainless steel less likely to rust, corrode or stain. Chromium forms an oxide when it is in contact with air and water, making it more durable. It’s possible that this oxide layer could help to remove unwanted smells. The idea is that the sulfur-containing chemicals left on your hands after chopping garlic may form a chemical bond to the chromium oxide and cling to the surface of the soap, not to your hands, solving the smell problem. The chromium oxide layer bound up with your garlic smells is then washed away with the running water and a new layer immediately forms and begins to attract sulphur containing chemicals.

Love the nerdy breakdown. Makes so much sense. Thanks for that

Wtf, really?! I came across this on Amazon by accident and thought it was neat. Never occured to me to try my stainless steel sink! :woman_facepalming:

@Alisa Yes. It is ‘soap’. And it works really well. Only problem is it can’t get under my nails, which is where most scents linger :face_with_diagonal_mouth: Maybe a different shape would :woman_shrugging:

People dedicate their life to etch a sketch drawing. You should see what they do on a full size one.
Just Google etch a sketch art and check it out.
