Custom Size Solid Oak James Martin Style Chopping Board

All our wooden chopping boards are made from kiln-dried European or English oak, and will contain a low level of moisture that ensures the wood is as stable as possible with a minimal risk of cracking or warping. Any sealer will wear off after a while so re-sealing will be necessary, you can usually see this happening as the color of the wood will begin to fade. They also help prevent your chopping board from warping because they allow both sides of the board to absorb moisture at the same rate. An important step of owning any decent wooden cutting board is that from time to time you will need to seal the surface. There are few meals that can be prepared without using a chopping board, so you need to ensure that you have at least one decent set in your kitchen.Use a lint-free cloth to apply the oil to the cutting board, move in circular motions along the board until the oil has been evenly applied and allow the oil to soak in and dry.

A bad chopping board will crack under pressure (quite literally), warp in heat, spill juices all over your work surface and harbour nasty bacteria if you’re not careful when washing it. That means end grain boards are much easier on the blade and so your knife will retain its edge for far longer. No marks: we put each board through a rigorous test of chopping and hacking with a sharp knife to check whether the surface was left with irremovable marks.Chopping boards naturally suffer wear-and-tear, but we wouldn’t expect them to damage easily on first use. However if you would prefer an oil a closer to hand and have no allergy towards a nut of vegetable oil feel free to use.

As pressure on the world’s forests and the surrounding eco-systems increases due to unsustainable agriculture, the expansion of infrastructure and illegal logging, it is time to take an even more holistic approach to protect and support these important resources for generations to come. However, to avoid any warping, we followed instructions to dry it straight afterwards and made sure not to soak or immerse it in water. A wooden chopping board shouldn’t be exposed to lots of water as it might warp or crack, and if you’re a real geek you should treat it with oil to keep it shipshape. Whilst this is potentially true, it can be easily counteracted by sealing and thoroughly washing an oak cutting board on a frequent basis. Here you will not only find our complete range of boards but also wall clocks, door stops, boot jacks, coasters and much more.When you receive your board, it will have been comprehensively treated with an anti-bacterial oil which not only protects against bacteria but also inhibits the ingress of moisture. Our selection includes classic wooden chopping boards, luxury marble chopping boards and sets of plastic chopping boards. They are also dishwasher-proof which is hassle-free and gives you the peace of mind that they are thoroughly clean after every use.
