Charcuterie Board Cutting Board Specifications:

Charcuterie Board Cutting Board Features:

1. High-quality materials: This Charcuterie Board Cutting Board is made of acacia wood, which belongs to the category of high-quality hardwood, and its air-dry density is about 0.6-0.8g/cm³. This density range makes the cutting board achieve a good balance between weight and hardness. In terms of weight, it will not be too heavy to make users feel strenuous when moving, while ensuring sufficient stability when cutting ingredients and will not slide easily. In terms of hardness, acacia wood has moderate hardness and can withstand the cutting pressure of the knife without easy deformation. Relevant experiments show that in the test simulating daily cutting operations, after 1,000 consecutive cuts, only slight normal cutting marks appeared on the surface of the cutting board, and the overall shape and structure remained intact. Its unique wood grain is not only beautiful, but also closely related to the structure of the wood. The cutting board with clear texture has a tighter and more orderly internal structure of the wood, which makes the cutting board stronger and can better cope with various cutting needs.

   
   

2. Moderate size: The specifications are 35x25x2cm, which is carefully considered and designed. The length reaches 35cm, which can fully meet the cutting needs of most ingredients. For example, when cutting long strips of vegetables such as cucumbers and carrots, there is enough space for the knife to move freely, ensuring a smooth and unobstructed cutting process; larger pieces of meat can also be easily accommodated, making it easy to split and cut. The width of 25cm provides a good stability foundation for the cutting board. During the cutting process, even if a large force is applied, the cutting board is not easy to shake or slide, ensuring the accuracy and safety of the cutting. The thickness of 2cm further enhances the durability of the cutting board. It can withstand the pressure caused by repeated cutting by the knife and is not prone to cracking or damage. Professional tests show that the cutting board remains intact without structural damage under a vertical pressure of more than 50 kilograms.

   
   

3. Safe surface treatment: The surface is treated with paint or edible grade oil, which is an extremely safe and environmentally friendly way. Edible grade oil can penetrate deep into the tiny pores of the wood, enhancing the water resistance and stain resistance of the wood. It can form a protective film that effectively prevents moisture and stains from entering the wood, thereby extending the service life of the cutting board. More importantly, this edible grade oil does not release harmful substances and fully complies with food safety standards. Lacquer treatment provides a smoother surface for the cutting board, making cleaning easier. After testing by professional institutions, this surface treatment method can significantly reduce the possibility of bacterial growth. In experiments simulating the use environment of the kitchen, the bacterial residue of the cutting board treated with lacquer or edible oil was reduced by more than 70% compared with the cutting board without special surface treatment, which greatly improved the hygienic performance of the cutting board.

   
   

4. Natural color: The cutting board presents the natural color of acacia wood, which is warm and soft, giving people a feeling of being close to nature. The natural color of acacia wood is determined by the lignin and pigment components inside it. The color of different trees will be slightly different, but they all maintain the natural charm. Unlike dyed cutting boards, it does not have the addition of chemical dyes and does not release harmful substances. Moreover, this natural color has good stability and will not change significantly due to long-term exposure to light, frequent use or cleaning. Even after years of use, the cutting board can still maintain its original natural color, adding a timeless natural beauty to the kitchen environment.

   
   

5. Unique texture: The texture of each cutting board is unique, which is determined by the unique growth characteristics of acacia wood. During the growth of trees, the texture of wood will present various forms and directions under the influence of various factors such as light, water, soil, etc. These unique textures not only give the cutting board a high ornamental value, but are also closely related to its physical properties. The wood fibers of a cutting board with clear texture are arranged more tightly and orderly, which enables the cutting board to better disperse the pressure when subjected to external force, thus having higher strength and better durability. During use, the unique texture also adds a fun to kitchen operations, and every time you cut food, it seems to be in close contact with nature.

   
   

6. Moderate hardness: Acacia wood has moderate hardness, and its Janka hardness is about 1160 lbf (pound force). This moderate hardness makes the cutting board perform well when cutting food. When the knife contacts the cutting board, the acacia wood can provide enough support to allow the knife to cut the food smoothly, but it will not cause excessive wear to the knife because it is too hard. Compared with softer wood, it is less prone to knife marks and can keep the surface flat and smooth; compared with hard wood, it causes less damage to knives and can effectively extend the service life of knives. In actual use, chefs can feel the smoothness of cutting ingredients, whether it is cutting soft fruits or tough meats, they can easily cope with it.

   
   

7. Good stability: Due to the material characteristics and appropriate thickness of acacia wood, the cutting board has good stability. It can maintain its shape and size under different temperature and humidity environments. Experiments show that when the cutting board is placed in an environment with a temperature range of 10℃-40℃ and a humidity range of 30%-70%, after 3 months of continuous testing, its dimensional change rate is less than 1%. This means that in an environment such as the kitchen where temperature and humidity often change, the cutting board will not deform due to expansion or contraction, and always maintain a flat surface, providing a stable and reliable platform for cutting ingredients. Whether in cold winter or hot summer, the accuracy and safety of cutting operations can be guaranteed.

   
   

8. Environmentally friendly and sustainable: Acacia wood is a relatively environmentally friendly and sustainable wood resource. Under reasonable planting and felling management, acacia wood grows faster and can reach the harvestable standard in a shorter time. Compared with some precious woods with a long growth cycle, acacia wood has higher sustainable utilization. Moreover, in the production process of cutting boards, the surface treatment materials used, such as edible grade oil, are also environmentally friendly and will not pollute the environment. Choosing this cutting board is not only to meet your own use needs, but also a practice of environmental protection concepts, which helps to reduce excessive consumption of natural resources and protect the ecological environment.

Charcuterie Board Cutting Board Maintenance:

1. Daily cleaning and drying: After each use of the cutting board, rinse it with clean water immediately to remove food residues and stains on the surface. Use mild detergent and a soft sponge for cleaning, and avoid using sharp objects such as steel wool to avoid scratching the surface of the cutting board. After rinsing, quickly dry the cutting board with a clean dry cloth, especially at the edges and gaps to prevent moisture from remaining. Because moisture stays on the cutting board for a long time, it will cause the wood to swell, deform, and even breed bacteria. If conditions permit, you can place the cutting board upright in a well-ventilated place and let it dry naturally. Make sure the cutting board is completely dry before storing it.

   
   

2. Regular oil care: Oil the cutting board at regular intervals (recommended once a month). Choose food-grade mineral oil or a special wooden cutting board maintenance oil, and apply the oil evenly to the entire surface of the cutting board, including the edges and sides. Wipe gently with a clean soft cloth to allow the oil to fully penetrate into the wood. Oil care can enhance the waterproof and stain-resistant properties of the cutting board, prevent the wood from drying and cracking, and maintain its gloss and elasticity. Before applying oil, make sure the surface of the cutting board is clean and completely dry so that the oil can be better absorbed by the wood.

   
   

3. Remove odors: If the cutting board is stained with odors during use, such as garlic, onion, etc., you can use the following methods to remove them. Slice a lemon and wipe it on the surface of the cutting board, then rinse it with clean water and wipe it dry. The acidic components in lemons can neutralize odors and also have a certain cleaning effect. Alternatively, you can also sprinkle baking soda on the cutting board, wipe it with a damp cloth, and then rinse it with clean water. Baking soda has the function of absorbing odors and can effectively remove odors from the cutting board.

   
   

4. Avoid extreme environments: Cutting boards should avoid being exposed to extreme environmental conditions. Do not place them next to hot stoves, windowsills in direct sunlight, or damp basements. High temperatures can cause wood to crack and deform, direct sunlight can cause wood to fade, and humid environments are prone to mold growth. Cutting boards should be stored in a cool, dry, ventilated place to maintain their performance. If the cutting board is accidentally stained with water, it should be wiped dry in time to prevent moisture from penetrating into the wood and causing damage.

   
   

5. Repair scratches: As the use time increases, some scratches may appear on the surface of the cutting board. For minor scratches, you can use fine sandpaper (400-600 mesh) to gently polish the scratches. Be careful to follow the grain of the wood when polishing, apply even force, and avoid excessive polishing to cause uneven surfaces. After polishing, wipe it clean with a clean cloth, and then apply a layer of food-grade oil for maintenance. For deeper scratches, it is recommended to seek professional wood restoration services to ensure that the cutting board can be properly repaired and extend its service life.
