Fish

[poliphilo]

I cooked fish for lunch yesterday. I'm happy to eat fish but I hate the way the smell of the cooking lingers so I don't do it very often. The kitchen has sliding glass doors and I had them open all the time, but there was still a strong smell of salmon hanging around the stairwell when I went up to bed in the evening.

We use vinegar - a small bowl of vinegar in smelly rooms, and vinegar in a spray bottle for intense odors. Works with puppies - might work with fish also.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it.

We bake ours, in a covered dish, and are scrupulous about washing the dishes and getting the fish wrappers out of the house.

But bluefish lingers, no matter how hard we try. I'll try artkouros's vinegar trick next time we do it.

Baking in a covered dish sounds like a good idea.
