How to Use the Wooden Cutting Board

1. Unboxing and Preparation

• Carefully unwrap the cutting board from its packaging.
• Inspect the board for any damages or defects.
• Wash the board with warm soapy water to remove any residue or dust from manufacturing.
• Dry the board thoroughly with a clean towel.

2. Choosing the Right Surface

• Ensure you place the cutting board on a stable, flat surface to prevent slipping during use.
• Avoid placing the board on wet or uneven surfaces to maintain safety and stability.

3. Using the Cutting Board

• Place the food item you wish to cut on the center of the board.
• Hold the item securely with one hand and use a sharp knife with the other.
• Cut or chop the ingredients as needed, ensuring your fingers are away from the knife’s path.

4. Cleaning and Maintenance

• After use, wash the cutting board with warm soapy water.
• Rinse thoroughly to ensure no soap remains on the board.
• Dry immediately and completely to prevent wood warping or cracking.
• Apply food-grade mineral oil occasionally to keep the wood conditioned and to extend the board’s lifespan.

5. Storage

• Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the board when stored flat.

6. Safety Tips

• Avoid soaking the wooden cutting board in water for extended periods.
