How to care for wooden utensils: 3 useful tips
SSPDaily has prepared life hacks for maintaining the quality of wooden utensils. Find out simple and practical tips to help keep this utensil in good condition.
Natural oil
Apply a small amount of edible mineral or coconut oil to the surface of wooden utensils. This will help retain moisture and prevent drying or cracking. Do not use cooking oils, such as olive oil or vegetable oil, as they can cause staining over time.
Hand washing
Use a soft sponge or cloth with mild dish soap and warm water. Harsh detergents and hot water can damage the wood and strip it of its natural oils. Be sure to rinse the dishes thoroughly and dry them immediately to prevent moisture from being absorbed.
Periodic care
To keep your wooden utensils looking good, you need to treat them with a conditioner from time to time. Apply a small amount of the product to the surface with a clean cloth. This will help to nourish the wood, emphasize its natural beauty and provide an additional layer of protection against stains and scratches.
