Oils are used for different reasons. You will not be happy with the results from vegetable oil; it will become sticky. I wouldn’t recommend animal fat either.

[@andymtb5714]

As a cutting board maker (woodworker), I can say this guy's right. A real cutting board will need this type of care regularly (every 2 months or so is best). It'll keep the board looking nice and keep it moisturized, and if you put a beeswax mix on it too, that'll help a lot with water resistance and general finish durability. To deep clean your board to prevent bacteria from growing, put salt on the board and then scrub it with a lemon half. The lemon juice and salt will sanitize it really well.

[@gingermonroe4153]

Ah. Us humans need all the help we can get. Thx what n kind of mineral oil?😊

[@andymtb5714]

@gingermonroe4153 any food safe mineral oil will work great! Also, I'd highly suggest checking out the Walrus Oil company (nothing to do with actual walruses), they're the best in the game. They make great cutting board oils, with waxes like beeswax and carnauba wax mixed into them, which really helps with durability and cutting board health. Also, Howard's makes a good cutting board oil/wax for cutting board care. Hope this helps!

[@TheShurikenZone]

Two points about mineral oil- It's not really edible (it's a laxative), and it never polymerizes (dries); it will soak in, but the mineral oil will always remain liquid. It's better to choose an oil that is truly food safe, and one that will dry. I suggest raw linseed (flax) oil. I'm a spoon carver, and raw linseed oil has done great for my spoons (and cutting boards) for years and years. 👍👍

[@lovetheory04]

Thank you frend! We dont have mineral water in our local store so that will be a great alternative

[@LizziePerson]

To add to this, oil allergies suck and gentle reminder to anyone who reads this to remember what oils you season your seasoned things with. Fun fact I am horrifically allergic to mineral oil and I became instantly afraid of other ppl’s cutting boards now 😭😭😭 mainly because it never occurred to me to worry about non-food oils on food surfaces

[@TheShurikenZone]

Be careful buying linseed oil though, the wrong kind is deadly poisonous

[@taiuqsab]

Fun fact about boos block: if you are within driving distance of effingham, Illinois or you are going on a road trip that passes through there, stop by the Boos outlet. They have a clearance section of mess ups. There’s nothing wrong with these boards other than a small scratch or a piece of wood with a dark spot. You won’t have the logo engraved on the cheapest ones but I’ll tell you this: I have three bigger than the one he shows in this video and I paid less than $200 for all of them, combined. They retail for $300-$600 a pop. Anytime I travel south from the Midwest, I stop there. Even if I don’t need another board. You can’t beat $50 for one of these!

for a $200 cutting board, that shit should come seasoned already 🤷‍♀️

[@melody3741]

200$ isn’t enough to pay an artisan to work with something by hand. So lets say it takes the artisan 50$ to do the work of seasoning one board. Thats 1/4 the price at 200$, for a 50$ board it would be half the price. If you’re already putting that much, why not spend extra to make a really nice board with nice wood and finishing? Also, people have different ways they like to do it. Assuming what someone needs in their specific situation usually isn’t worth saving them 15 minutes of work

[@ohnoyce]

Even if it came seasoned, you still want to maintain. Re-season as needed. You’ll know it’s time when water isn’t beading up on it anymore.

Olive oil and most other cooking oils go rancid when exposed to oxygen. Your cutting board will start imparting rancid flavors to your food if used.

Wash it with soap and hot water just like anything else in your kitchen. Rinse it well and dry it off immediatly. When the board looks a little dried out put another coat of mineral oil on it. You don't need anything fancy, I use food grade mineral oil that you can find in the personal care aisle in your supermarket. I make endgrain cutting boards as a hobby and tell everyone I give them to the same thing.

Personally, I don't use meat on my wood board, I have cheap plastic boards for that since it's easier to clean. I keep my nice wood board for everything else tho. That being said, warm water & soap should do the trick. Just dry immediately so the wood board doesn't get warped.

[@silamaleesri8661]

End grain cutting boards comes with its own cons aswell they're a little softer than a face grain and so they get damaged easier, they also absorb moisture faster and increases the chance to grow bacteria and so requires more frequent tlc. Face grains are stronger and more stable especially if it's quarter sawn and so requires less tlc and takes more abuse though harder on your blade so sharpen often.
