Kateryna YagovychLS Food

The problem with using wooden boards is that they instantly absorb all flavors and aromas. So if you chopped an onion on such a surface, it's not surprising that the next food will taste like that vegetable. Just rinsing with running water is definitely not enough.

The culinary expert at o gorodnik shared his tips on how to properly wash a wooden board on his Instagram page. After you have cleaned the surface, you must disinfect it.

How to properly clean a wooden board

After each use, wash the board thoroughly by hand with a mild detergent and warm water. Avoid immersing the board in water to prevent swelling and cracking.

How to dry properly

Immediately after washing, dry the board with a clean towel and let it air dry. It is best to place the board upright for air circulation.

Disinfecting

To disinfect and remove odors, sprinkle coarse salt on the board and then rub the surface with half a lemon. Leave on for a few minutes, then rinse with warm water and dry. Wipe the board periodically with a white vinegar solution to kill bacteria.

Masking scratches and stains

To remove stains and scratches, sprinkle baking soda on the whiteboard and rub with a damp sponge or cloth. Rinse and dry the board.
