Care for your board
Care for your board
- Never soak in water or allow it to sit in the sink
- Hand wash only (the amount of heat and water a dishwasher uses can damage your board)
- Hand dry thoroughly
- A separate board should be used for raw meat
- Store in a dry area
- Avoid extreme temperatures
- Oil with board butter or food safe mineral oil regularly to retain beautiful color and water resistance (recommend at least monthly, more frequent with heavy use)
- Do not use vegetable oil, it can spoil on your board.
- To deep clean
- Wipe down with Vinegar followed by a wipe down of Hydrogen Peroxide to disinfect. Do not allow to pool or soak into the board.
- You can also rub a lemon half over the board to remove any odors. Lemon juice can be used, but should not be allowed to pool or soak into the board.
- Once dry, make sure to follow up with a fresh coat of mineral oil and/or beeswax
