The Best Way Of Using Your Wooden Cutting Board

By Wendy Locksmith


The main idea behind the introduction of cutting boards in the kitchen is to simplify the work of cutting and chopping foods since it gives you a hard surface to work on as opposed to using the table tops.

Another reason is that all those fantastic counter tops that make your kitchen look beautiful must be protected from damage during the cutting process of foodstuff. When you form the habit of using cutting boards, the kitchen counters will remain clean, germ-free and beautiful.

Now you understand why the homes that have allowed their kitchen counters to be used arbitrarily for chopping and cutting purposes without any protection at all; will pay dearly. It will come when they realize how this business can make those surfaces ugly and unsightly.

It is because this type of home improvement does not come cheap; and would really not be necessary in the short span if the kitchen counters were well protected in the first place. All you can do is to identify the right type of cutting board, and voila! They come in plastic or wooden form.

The majority of top chefs will tell you that they work with wooden boards. These are good as long as the required maintenance is strictly adhered to, but it is you to choose.

The wooden boards have the tendency to warp and split if not maintained properly, which means the plastic one would be better in this case and can help you to do the cutting job very well. What one should not think about at all as a chopping board is glass, for it is very brittle.

As you think of what can protect your kitchen counters, think also of the cutting knives as some very hard surface will only succeed in damaging your working tools like knives by blunting and disfiguring them. Obviously disfigured and blunt knives would not cut and dice your food satisfactorily and easily.

It is recommended that cutting boards when disinfected satisfactorily using natural bleach which is commonly used in the home, the vinegar, can do very fine. It is good to mix vinegar with water which forms a disinfectant that is useful in the home for all surfaces including the counter tops.
