If you love your latkes at Chanukah, the smell of fried food can build up quickly over 8 nights. These additional tips can help keep your space odor-free for the whole holiday.
Ventilate while cooking: Opening windows or doors while cooking latkes can dramatically reduce the lingering smells afterwards. The open door allows grease-filled air to escape and allows fresh air to circulate immediately.
Use splatter guards: Mesh splatter guards placed over your pan while cooking can stop some greasy particles from reaching the air and cuts down on clean-up around the stove.
Air purification: If opening windows and doors is not an option while frying for Chanukah, an air purifier can quickly suck lingering particles out of the air before they get a chance to settle. Just remember to clean or replace the filters before the holiday to make sure they’re working at maximum capacity.
Memories are built on traditions. But the stale smell of fried food in the morning isn’t everyone’s favorite scent. Odor eliminating candles can reset your space in minutes and stop stubborn food odors from settling into the home. Discover some new scented candles this Chanukah and find out how much more seasonal and welcoming your home can feel for your family and visitors.
