Chopping Board

• Remove Dust Often: Wipe off dust and bits with a soft, dry, or damp cloth. Stay away from rough or scratchy materials
• Go for Gentle Cleaners: For a deep clean, use a mild soap mix and a damp cloth. Steer clear of strong chemicals and bleach
• Guard Against Spills: Wipe up spills right away with a dry cloth to stop warping and staining
• Add Shine: Now and then put on some beeswax or natural furniture polish to keep the wood’s protective layer and make it gleam

Placement & Protection

• Keep Out of Direct Sunlight: Too much sun can make wood fade and dry out. Use window coverings to cut down on sun exposure

• • Control Moisture: Too much dampness can warp wood, while dry air can make it crack. A balanced setting helps keep wood in good shape

• Put Down Coasters & Mats: Always set hot or cold items on coasters and heavy things on placemats to stop scratches and marks

How to Look After Your Wooden Kitchen Tools

Basic Care for All Wooden Kitchen Items

• Wash by Hand: Don’t soak in water or put in the dishwasher, as too much water can make wood swell and split. Clean with mild soap and warm water then dry right away
• Oil It: Put food-safe mineral oil or coconut oil on often to keep the wood from drying out and cracking
• Stay Away from Too much Heat: Keep wooden items away from stoves and microwaves to stop them from warping

Special Care for Wooden Chopping Boards

• Clean After Each Use: Wash with warm water and mild soap immediately after use. For tough stains or smells, scrub it with lemon and coarse salt
• Deep Clean Once a Month: To disinfect, mix one-part white vinegar with four parts water, then wipe down the board
• Oil Often: Apply a thick layer of food-grade mineral oil every two to three weeks to keep the board durable and balanced
• Stop Cross-Contamination: Always use different boards for meats, veggies, and bread to keep them clean and steer clear of bacteria growth
• Store the Right Way: Put in a dry place with good air flow. When not using, store upright so air can move around it
