WOOD CARE
To ensure your cheese board, cheese knives or cutting board lives a long life and is kept looking its best it will need re-treating over time with food safe oil or wax. Firstly, make sure the piece is dry then if the wood is looking a little fuzzy use a fine grit sand paper (400 to 1200 grit) and lightly sand the piece until smooth then apply a wood oil or wax. The best oils to use are ‘U-Beaut’ Food Grade Mineral Oil, coconut oil or linseed oil. These steps will ensure your piece is smooth and shiny again.
It’s important you never put your wooden goods in the dishwasher or leave them soaking in water as this can cause the grain to raise (fuzzy, rough feel) or it may result in the timber cracking.
