CARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR WOOD CUTTING BOARD
Note: The life of a cutting block can be lengthened by five to ten years through observing the following simple rules.
1. Do not allow moisture of any type to stand on the block for long periods of time.
2. Use a good steel scraper or spatula several times a day, as necessary, to keep the cutting surface clean and sanitary. Do not
use a steel brush on the cutting surface of your block.
3. Periodically (once every several weeks), depending upon the use, apply an even coat of mineral oil and melted paraffin to the
work surface of your cutting block. The liquid paraffin and mineral oil should be mixed together and sponged on with a rag.
Allow to dry. The paraffin will set up and then it should be scraped from the work surface.
4. Do not cut fish or fowl on the work surface of your cutting block, unless you have thoroughly followed the instructions in step
#3 – as the moisture barrier must be intact prior to cutting any type of fish, seafood, or fowl on the work surface of your cutting
block. Always clean the block thoroughly after cutting fish or fowl on the work surface.
5. Be sure never to cut continuously in the same place on the top of your block. Distribute your cutting over the entire work
surface so that it will wear evenly.
6. Never wash your cutting block with harsh detergents of any type.
7. At the conclusion of a day’s work preparing meat or food on your cutting block, scraping the block will remove 75% of the
moisture. After scraping, immediately dry thoroughly with an absorbent towel. This assures an odorless, clean cutting surface
for the next day and prevents unnecessary quick deterioration of the work surface.
