care for chopping board

I’ve never given much thought to my wooden boards, apart from giving them a good wipe down with hot water at the end of the day and an occasional spray of our Green Goddess Antibacterial Spray, until a good friend gave me a lovely wooden pizza board.

I want to look after it and I was pleased to find this guide on how to care for your wooden board.

How To Care For Your Wooden Board

The best way to easily care for your board on a daily basis is to rub it with salt and lemon, brush off and next add oil, rub the oil into the grain and leave for about 10 minutes then wipe off.

For a super clean use this recipe:

1/2 cup Green Goddess White Cleaning Vinegar

1 cup of water

5 drops of Thieves or Lemon essential oil

Simply add essential oils to vinegar/water mixture. Spray cutting board and allow to sit for 10 minutes.

Gently rise and allow to completely dry.

After completely dry, follow with a light oiling with coconut oil to protect the surface.
