Seasoning These care instructions apply universally to all wooden items, from wooden bowls, cutting boards, and charcuterie boards to wooden utensils, ensuring each piece remains a beautiful and functional part of your home for generations. Cleaning and Maintenance If the wood is tacky or sticky, it is best to hand wash it well with warm water and dish soap, then scrub it down with a nylon scrubber. Give it an hour or two to air dry. If necessary, repeat the procedure. After drying, if the wood appears dry, use fine steel wool (No. 0000) to sand lightly while paying attention to following the grain pattern, and buff it to a soft glow with a wood preserver. To clean, hand wash your woodenware with warm water and mild soap without soaking, to prevent damage. Wood is naturally antibacterial, but for extra sanitization, a solution of one part white vinegar to five parts water, or a 50-50 vinegar-water spray, effectively controls bacteria growth. Rinse and air dry after sanitizing. Sanitizing Damage Repair If the wood gets dents or fuzzy in texture, use steel wool or 400–600 grit sandpaper to gently sand the affected area in a grain following manner until it's smooth. As usual, wash and drythe bowl, and season it, to bring it back to its original state.
