Cleaning Your Charcuterie Board
To keep your wood and epoxy charcuterie board looking its best, follow these simple cleaning steps:
1. Wipe off any food residue using a soft cloth or paper towel.
2. Gently clean the board with warm soapy water, avoiding submerging it completely in water.
3. Rinse the board with a damp cloth, taking care not to soak the wood or epoxy.
4. Thoroughly dry the board with a soft cloth or allow it to air dry, ensuring it is completely dry before storing.
Maintaining Your Board
Proper maintenance is essential for preserving the beauty and longevity of your charcuterie board. Follow these guidelines to maintain its appearance and functionality:
Regularly oil your board with food-safe mineral oil or board conditioner. This helps prevent the wood from drying out and cracking.
Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the wood and epoxy surfaces.
Do not place your board in the dishwasher, as the high heat and water exposure can cause warping and damage.
Store your board in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
