FAQs
What type of wood is used for this board?
The board is made from Hevea wood, also known as rubberwood. It's chosen for its durability, sustainability, and natural aesthetic.
Is this board dishwasher safe?
No, the Tala Hevea Rectangular Board is not dishwasher safe. It should be hand-washed only with warm, soapy water and dried thoroughly.
How often should I oil the board?
It is recommended to oil the board monthly, or more frequently if you notice the wood looking dry or if it is used extensively. Regular oiling helps maintain its condition and prevents drying.
Can I use this board for serving food as well as chopping?
Yes, its natural beauty makes it suitable for serving cheeses, charcuterie, or other appetizers, in addition to being a functional chopping board.
What are the dimensions of the board?
The board measures approximately 1.5cm (Height) x 41cm (Width) x 28cm (Length).
Will this board dull my knives?
Hevea wood is a moderately hard wood that is generally considered knife-friendly. It should not excessively dull your knives when used properly.
Troubleshooting
Board appears dry or has small cracks.
Apply a generous coat of food-safe mineral oil to all surfaces. Allow it to soak in for several hours or overnight, then wipe off any excess. Repeat if necessary. Store in a dry place away from direct heat sources.
Food stains or strong odors are present.
Wash immediately after use with warm water and mild soap. For stubborn stains or odors, you can try scrubbing gently with a paste of baking soda and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Oiling the board after cleaning can help prevent future staining.
Knife marks are deep or numerous.
Minor knife marks are normal for a wooden cutting board. For significant damage, you can lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit) and then re-oil the board to restore its finish.
