How To Clean Chicken Properly And Remove Bad Smell Before Cooking

Smelly chicken can ruin a dish if not cleaned properly. Learn simple methods using salt, lemon or vinegar, flour and turmeric water to remove odour, kill bacteria and make chicken fresh, clean and ready to cook.

After bringing the chicken, first put it in a large bowl and add 1-2 teaspoons of salt. Rub the salt all over the chicken with clean hands. This easily removes stickiness and dirt.

To get rid of the chicken's smell, use a teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar. Add it and let the chicken sit for 5 minutes. Gently massage it and then wash it with water to completely eliminate the smell.

Yes, very few people know that wheat flour is also useful for cleaning chicken. Take a little flour, sprinkle it on the chicken, rub it well, and then wash it with water. This will make the chicken completely clean and fresh.

Take water in a large bowl. Mix half a teaspoon of turmeric in it, then soak the chicken for 5 to 7 minutes. Rub it gently and wash with plain water. This kills bacteria and makes the chicken clean and hygienic.

For the final wash, always rinse the chicken under running water. This will remove any particles of salt or lemon, making the chicken fresh, tender, and soft. Also, there will be no bad smell in the chicken.
