How to Care for Bamboo Cutting Boards
 
Bamboo cutting boards are gaining in popularity over wood cutting boards due their green appeal, hardiness and exotic look.  Bamboo is extremely durable and is even harder than maple wood.   Bamboo cutting boards just like wood cutting boards have to be taken care of to ensure many years of use.  Below are some tips and advice on how to care for your bamboo cutting board
 

Wash your bamboo cutting board with hot water and a mild natural soap.  Be sure to rinse thoroughly after cleaning.  Be sure to dry your bamboo cutting board thoroughly.  Bamboo Cutting boards are not dishwasher safe.  You should also never soak your cutting board as this will cause it to warp.

To preserve the beauty of your bamboo cutting boards they will need to be oiled on a regular basis.  Be sure to oil your bamboo cutting boards at least once a month.  Rub down each side of the bamboo cutting board with a little oil.  Allow the oil to absorb and soak in, let air dry, and then wipe access off with a clean cloth.  Mineral Oil and other specialty oils are a good choice.  Be sure not to oil your bamboo cutting board with any cooking oils such as olive or vegetable oils.
