Know before you buy
Yes, the laser-etched design is purely aesthetic and does not interfere with the board's food-safe surface. The board is finished with food-grade oil to ensure it remains safe for serving appetizers or charcuterie.
While the board is reversible, it is designed with a dual-purpose approach. One side features the decorative Missouri artwork for serving, while the other side is a clean, flat surface ideal for daily cutting and chopping.
Bamboo is a natural material that can warp or crack if exposed to the high heat and prolonged moisture of a dishwasher. Hand washing with mild soap and drying it immediately will significantly extend the life and appearance of the wood.
No, Moso bamboo is a grass that provides a firm yet forgiving surface. It is much gentler on knife edges than glass, stone, or plastic boards, helping to keep your blades sharper for longer.
To keep the bamboo from drying out, it is recommended to occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil or bamboo conditioning oil. This helps maintain the wood's luster and prevents it from absorbing excess moisture.
