6 Reasons Why Wood Cutting Boards Are Superior

The culinary world's unsung hero - wood cutting boards. Discover six compelling reasons why wood cutting boards stand out as the superior choice, from their knife-friendly surfaces to the timeless aesthetic appeal and inherent antibacterial properties. Keep reading to discover why we prefer wood cutting boards!

1. Knife-Friendly Surface: Wooden cutting boards provide a softer surface compared to materials like glass or stone, reducing the wear on knife blades and preserving their sharpness over time.

2. Antibacterial Properties: Certain wood types, such as maple, naturally possess antibacterial properties, making wood cutting boards more hygienic as they inhibit the growth of bacteria.

3. Durability and Longevity: Well-maintained wood cutting boards are durable and can withstand the test of time, offering a longer lifespan compared to many other materials.

4. Timeless Aesthetic Appeal: Wood cutting boards add a touch of warmth and sophistication to the kitchen, serving not just as practical tools but also as aesthetically pleasing additions to culinary spaces.

5. Easy To Maintain: Wood cutting boards are incredibly easy to maintain. Although they aren't designed to be placed in a dishwasher, if you hand wash them and re-condition them periodically, they will stay looking brand new. We recommend our very own blend of 100% food safe mineral oil and locally sourced beeswax for this.

6. Versatility in Design: Wood cutting boards come in various shapes, sizes, and designs. We like to use exotic and non-exotic woods to make our boards pop. This offers versatility in design to suit individual preferences and complement different kitchen styles.
