what is up everybody this is aryan sharma today i'm going to discuss how to clean and maintain your wooden chopping board this is the one that i'm using it's a peak wood chopping board firstly i'm going to start with the don'ts there are three don'ts you don't want to do these things number one you don't want to put your wooden chopping board into the dishwasher what will happen is all the water in from the dishwasher will seep into the wood making the wood weak and it will snap real quick number two you do not want to use extremely hot and boiling water on the chopping board hot water damages wood so we don't want to use that number three do not use any harsh and strong detergents or chemicals on the wooden chopping board all right so this is how you're going to clean your wooden chopping board first things first when you finish your task as in when you finish chopping vegetables or fruits or meat immediately with a damp cloth or a dry cloth or a kitchen napkin wipe the surface of the chopping board so after wiping the food recipe from the wooden chopping board you're going to rinse the chopping board but don't keep it under the water for a long time just do it real quick within 20 seconds finish your cleaning wipe the board and keep it up straight so that all the water that's on the chopping board drains out so after you rinse your chopping board what you want to do is keep your board up straight vertically and do not keep your chopping board horizontally all right if you keep your board horizontally all the water will seep into the wood making the wood really weak there is one more technique how you can clean your chopping board is by using sea salt and lime apply some sea salt on the chopping board take half a lime and scrub the board with the lime alright after you finish that rinse the chopping board or just damp clean the chopping board the most important thing to maintain your wooden chopping board is to periodically oil your chopping board so what we are going to do is use 15 ml of pure coconut oil apply it on the surface of the chopping board massage it for a couple of minutes and then just damp it wipe it off all right this you're going to do every month for your chopping board so that's how you clean and maintain your wooden chopping board if you like this video give it a thumbs up share the video comment give a good feedback let me know if the do's and don'ts worked for you subscribe to my channel this is aryan sharma catch you guys later all right guys if you like this particular chopping board it's a teakwood chopping board i'll put all the details in the description you can check them out thank you so much
