How to Keep Your Wood Cutting Board Looking Brand New
A premium wood cutting board can last a lifetime, but only if it receives the right care. If you want to keep your CanaKasa Teak board glowing and hygienic, follow these simple Golden Rules of wood board maintenance:
-
Hand Wash Only: Always wash your board by hand with mild dish soap and warm water immediately after use. Wipe it down and let it air dry completely.
-
Never Submerge or Dishwash: Leaving a wood board soaking in water or putting it in the dishwasher will cause the wood to warp and crack.
-
Oil Regularly: Every 3 to 4 weeks, apply a thin layer of food-safe mineral oil or natural beeswax to the surface. Let it sit overnight, then wipe off any excess. This locks out moisture and keeps the wood deep and vibrant.
Taking just a few minutes to care for your board ensures it remains safe for your food and beautiful for your kitchen display.
