The Arrowhead Bay Michigan shaped bamboo cutting and serving board is a real novelty and a perfect gift for anyone who is crazy about or loyal to Michigan! These boards are ideal for both indoor and outdoor entertaining and can be used as a cutting or bar board, cheese tray, serving platter or simply as a conversation piece. Each board can be hung on the wall by its rustic tie-string hanging loop.
To season new boards:
Generously apply any food-safe mineral oil every few days for the first month.
Pour on what looks like far too much, then rub it in with a clean dish towel that you'll dedicate as your board towel from this day forward. It may look like there's a thick oil slick on top of your board when you're done rubbing, but let your board rest for about five minutes and come back and take a look. All the oil has been absorbed! When breaking in a brand-new board, for best results try to repeat this process about three times to ensure that there are no thin or extra-thirsty spots.
For daily use - oil your board about once per month. If you're someone who doesn't cook for a living all day, every day, you could probably get away with oiling two to three times per year.
To care for board, wash with warm water and a mild detergent and liberally oil when the board appears dry or as needed. Bamboo is a grass that grows to maturity in just five years. It does not need to be replanted, artificially irrigated or fertilized. Making it one of the world's most renewable resources.
