Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your board remains in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- First Use: Before using it for food preparation, it is recommended to lightly wipe the board with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning: Hand-wash the board using warm water and a mild dish soap. Avoid soaking the wood or leaving it submerged in water, as this can cause warping.
- Drying: Immediately towel-dry the board after washing and allow it to air-dry completely in a vertical position to ensure even airflow.
- Maintenance: To keep the cedar vibrant and prevent cracking, apply a food-safe mineral oil periodically to seal the grain.
- Storage: Store in a dry area away from direct heat sources like stovetops or radiators.
