Williams Sonoma End-Grain Cutting Board, Walnut

Summary

We developed our signature line of wooden cutting boards to be both beautiful and functional. Designed to protect the sharpest blades, the boards also provide stability during use and look handsome enough to keep out on the counter. These end-grain boards feature traditional butcher-block construction, with the wood pieces oriented vertically to maximize scratch resistance and minimize impact on cutting edges.

• Crafted of sustainably harvested yellow birch or walnut.
• End-grain construction provides exceptional strength and durability and won't dull knife blades.
• Hand grips are carved into sides for easy lifting.
• Doubles as rustic serving piece for breads, cheeses and appetizers.
• Finished with food-safe mineral oil.
• Designed and made exclusively for Williams Sonoma.

Use & Care

Use

• Board should be seasoned with food-grade mineral oil before first use.
• To season board properly, apply oil in direction of wood grain using clean, dry cloth. Allow oil to soak in and repeat with another application. Allow board to dry and wipe off any excess oil.

Care

• Hand-wash with hot, soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
• Do not soak or submerge board in water.
• Occasionally rub with food-safe mineral oil to keep wood from drying out.
• To sanitize, wash board with solution of one part vinegar to five parts water.
• Remove odors by rubbing board with kosher or table salt and half a lemon. Let sit for 2–3 minutes then wipe clean with damp cloth. Remove excess moisture with clean paper towel and stand board on end to air-dry.
