Cleaning:
Wash your cuttingboard as quickly as possible after usage.
The cuttingboard is best cleaned with sope on a sponge or brush. After cleaning rinse the board with warm water.
If needed, the board can be rinsed with boiling water.
Always wash both sides of the board and dry it quickly with a clean cloth. Then leave the board to dry on its thin back edge.
Never wash your board in the dishwasher og leave it to soak in water. Both treatments will damage the wood.
Don’t expose your board extreme heat or cold, or leave it to dry in direct heat.
Oil treatment:
Always clean your board before any oiltreatment.
To apply oil use a clean white dustless cloth.
Apply the oil with the cloth in a even layer, following the grain of the wood. Leave the oil for 3 to 5 minutes before whipping the excess oil of with a dry cloth.
Always apply oil on both sides of the board.
After the oiltreatment, leave the board to dry on its thin back edge.
Your board should be treated with oil once a month.
