Basic Care for Your Charcuterie Board:

• • Hand wipe your charcuterie board with mild soap and warm water.

  • Avoid soaking or putting it in the dishwasher.

  • Dry it thoroughly after washing and store it in a cool, dry place.

  • Apply a thin layer of food-grade mineral oil or beeswax regularly to maintain its luster and protect the wood.

Handling and Food Safety:

• • Always use separate charcuterie boards for raw and cooked foods.

  • Avoid cutting directly on the board to prevent scratches.

  • Clean any spills promptly to prevent staining.

  • Keep your charcuterie board dry when serving and use food-safe barriers (like parchment paper) under moist or oily items.

Long-Term Maintenance:

• • Periodically inspect your board for wear and tear, such as deep cuts or cracks.

  • Sand the surface lightly if needed to remove imperfections.

  • Reapply mineral oil or beeswax every few months or when the board appears dry to maintain its sheen and prolong its life.

  • Consider reconditioning your board annually to ensure it continues to look its best.

Following these care instructions will help ensure your charcuterie board remains in great condition and serve you for years to come.
