@@boatheWood does “move”, but often moves back. First try storing it with the not normally used side up, or standing on end. Leave it that way for a day or more to see if there’s any difference. If not, depending on whether it is thick enough, it is possible to joint and plane cutting boards, although I don’t know if I would do it on my machine because of any oil and wax that might be present on/in the board. But if it is wood, it can warp, particularly those that are less than about 1 1/2” thick. Good luck!
As an added bonus - after cleaning your board with lemons cut them up and run through you garbage disposal to freshen and clean it.

My plumber friend said that purposely putting stuff down the garbage disposal is asking for a visit from a plumber down the road. Of course, the stuff that ends up in there gets run, but I now have a sink screen that I let catch most of the stuff, which I just empty into my “organics” container.

I cut them up into chunks and freeze them - the lemon scent is distributed better and it sharpens the blades.

This guy communicates so effortlessly that his words carry a compelling weight. Despite a lifetime of using plastic cutting boards, watching his video convinced me to make the switch to wooden ones
Ohhhhh so that’s how trees work. 🤯 Thanks, Steve!
I didn't know you were supposed to oil your cutting boards! Going to do that tonight. Also, bring back the sweater vest, Steve.
I've just bought my first ever wooden chopping board, (been using either plastic, glass or marble for years) and have been watching a few of these care videos. This video was definitely the best, most complete, most thorough and the only one I've seen that mentioned conditioning. Plus the humour made me smile. Subscribed.

Thank you so helpful

Thank you
I made a cutting board for my niece and searched videos for cutting board care to send her. This one is the best. Thank you, Steve!
Fantastic cutting board tips!
THANK YOI FOR ALL OF THE GREAT AND USEFUL INFORMATION YOU GIVE TO ME!🙏✝️☮😇🍽
Easy instructions brilliant
Great insight on the lemon and baking soda. If you have trouble finding cutting board oil, I’ve found that hardware stores almost always have a supply on hand.
Thank you very much for a wonderful video. Your instructions are awesome. My cutting boards were dry and lighty cracked. Now, thanks to you, they're perfect 🥰
Love your work Steve, thanks for the tip about washing both sides to prevent warping. When I'm oiling my cutting board I stand it upright, tilt a bit to add the oil and rub it in with my hands. No need to waste a paper towel or get oil all over a kitchen towel that way! I also just leave the excess oil on there and most of it absorbs overnight, especially in the middle which gets pretty thirsty.
Agree with the previous comment, thank you🥰
So that’s why my kitchen smells… ;) thanks Steve!

Do you need to waiting until the board is completely dry before oiling it? Thanks.

No you don't. Mineral oil is safe for consumption. Wipe up any oil that hasn't soaked in before using the board.
When I oil my boards I set them on painters triangles. I put a ton of oil and rotate them 1-2x at night. They are too large and risky to set them on their side.

Rather than ordering a board with rubber feet (and missing out on using that side of the board if I wanted to), I bought five 1 1/2” suction cups that I stick to the counter where the four corners and the middle of the board will be. I cut with it that way, and also when oiling my board.

Hey guys! So after I oil my cutting board and leave it for 24 hours, can I directly put food and start chopping or wash it again before cooking
@MadeInCookware

You can put food directly on it! It should be food-safe mineral oil, so it's really up to you but no need to fully wash.
Just use different boards for different types of food. I use wood board for heavy chopping. For meat, fish, onion and even tomatos plastic is OK and easy to clean.

Another great tip for sanitizing wooden cutting boards is to use HOCL (Force of Nature or similar). Leave for 10 minutes and wipe off. It's totally safe for food and even skin contact (used in wound care, for burn victims and can even treat eczema), and a FDA approved sanitizer. Mineral Oil has recently been re-classified as a suspected carcinogen, so I would avoid it if at all possible.

When you mix baking soda and an acid, they neutralize each other and lose their cleaning properties.
