How do you get the odors out of a wood cutting board?
It seems like every time I cut onions, my wood cutting board smells like onions and makes the whole kitchen smell too, even after I clean it. Is there something else I can do to safely take out the odors without damaging the cutting board?
Wooden cutting boards require a little extra care to ensure they will last a long time and keep you safe from any food borne bacteria.
Clean both sides of the board with a damp cloth or sponge and a mild antibacterial soap.
Rinse with hot water, wipe with a clean cloth, and allow it to dry in an upright position.
Note: Do not immerse or soak your wooden cutting board. It will warp and damage the board for future use.
Every few weeks, you will want to give it a little extra maintenance; generously sprinkle coarse salt over the surface of the board, and rub it with a sliced lemon. This will help remove stains and odors.
If your cutting board is made from butcher block, you will also need to oil it once a month with a small amount of mineral oil.
Good luck to you!
