A little care helps preserve the appearance of your Stikman Originals charcuterie or cutting board. Follow any care instructions supplied with your individual piece.
Everyday cleaning
DO NOT PUT YOUR BOARD IN THE DISHWASHER, SOAK IT, OR LEAVE IT STANDING IN WATER. AVOID ABRASIVE PADS ON ANY BOARD WITH EPOXY.
Hand-wash using mild dish soap, warm water, and a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge. Wipe away food promptly, rinse briefly, and towel-dry immediately. Allow the board to air-dry fully with airflow around both sides before storing.
Protecting your board
Keep your board away from direct heat, hot cookware, and prolonged direct sunlight. Store it in a dry place away from heat sources.
We’ve included a complimentary container of Stikman Originals Board Butter, made with locally sourced beeswax and food-grade mineral oil.
If your board begins to look dull or dry, apply Board Butter to the wood using a soft microfibre or cotton cloth. Allow it to absorb for a few minutes, then wipe away any excess.
Replacement containers of Stikman Originals Board Butter are available for purchase on our website. You may also use a commercially available food-grade cutting board oil if you prefer.
Boards with epoxy
Boards with epoxy are intended for serving, not cutting, as knives will scratch the epoxy surface. Use a separate cutting board for food preparation. Clean epoxy surfaces gently with a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge, and do not place hot cookware on them.
