Use & Care

Use

• Board should be seasoned with a food-grade mineral oil before first use.
• To season the board properly, warm the mineral oil slightly and apply it in the direction of the wood grain using a clean, dry cloth. Allow the oil to soak in and repeat with another application. Allow the 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 a food-safe mineral oil to keep wood from drying out.
• To sanitize, wash the board with a solution of one part vinegar to five parts water.
• Remove odors by rubbing the board with kosher or table salt and half a lemon. Let sit for 2 to 3 minutes then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Remove excess moisture with a clean paper towel and stand the board on end to air dry.
• Store in a dry area away from extreme temperatures.
