CUTTING BOARD CARE GUIDE

 

Your newly acquired cutting board is more than just a kitchen utensil; It’s an investment and something that a proud owner should be able to show off for many years.  Your board has already undergone a relaxing spa treatment encompassing a warm mineral oil bath followed by a deep tissue massage utilizing Deckplate Designs’ very own citrus and oil infused beeswax (included with order and also for sale in the online store).

Proper care should be taken to maximize the life of your show piece.  Below are the “do’s” and “do not’s” of cutting board care:

 

DO:

• Hand wash your board with a mild dish soap.

• Wipe your clean cutting board dry with a towel.

• Always allow to air dry in a vertical position on its side.

• Apply food safe oil and wax mixture at the first notice of the board drying out.

​

DO NOT:

• DO NOT PUT THE BOARD IN THE DISHWASHER!!!

• Submerge the board in water for any extended period of time.  The board will eventually absorb the water and warp.

• Use bleach or other harsh cleaners.

• Let dry in a flat position.  It’s important to dry both sides of the board out simultaneously to avoid warping.
