FAQs

Is the Kora Acacia Serving Dish dishwasher safe?

No, this serving dish is hand wash only. Dishwashing can damage the acacia wood and its finish.

Can I use this dish for hot foods?

This dish is best suited for serving room temperature or chilled foods. It is not designed for direct heat exposure like ovens or microwaves.

How do I maintain the wood's appearance?

To keep the acacia wood looking its best, hand wash and dry it thoroughly. Periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil will help maintain its natural luster and prevent drying.

Are the two compartments the same size?

The product description implies two distinct compartments, ideal for separating items. While sizes may not be identical, they are designed for functional separation of dips, snacks, or other accompaniments.

What are the dimensions of the dish?

The dimensions are approximately H4 x D23 x W32 cm.

Can I put oil or dressing directly into the compartments?

Yes, the dish is suitable for dips and sauces. Ensure it is cleaned promptly after use, especially with oily or colored dressings, to prevent staining.

What is acacia wood known for?

Acacia wood is known for its durability, natural beauty with distinct grain patterns, and resistance to water, making it a popular choice for kitchenware and serving pieces.

Troubleshooting

Dish appears dry or dull.

Apply a food-safe mineral oil using a soft cloth. Allow it to soak in for a few hours, then wipe away any excess. Repeat as needed.

Light scratches or scuffs appear.

For minor surface scratches, you can try gently sanding with very fine-grit sandpaper (e.g., 220 grit) in the direction of the grain, followed by re-oiling the surface.

Food residue is difficult to remove.

Ensure the dish is properly dried after washing. For stubborn residue, try a paste of baking soda and water, gently scrub, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
