Cutting/Serving boards.
Do Not wash in dish washer or submerge in water. Clean with damp cloth and soapy water and allow to dry not lying flat. Leave to dry on a wire rack or standing on its side. Carry out regular re oiling with Food-Grade Mineral Oil. Cover the whole board with an even coat but don't over do it. This hydrates the board to prevent splitting and drying out. Leave to dry on its side.
After 4-5 hours the oil has saturated the wood. Wipe over the board with microfibres cloth. Now it’s time for a layer of wax or cream all over the board to keep it hydrated from the oil.
