FAQ's
How do you safely clean a wooden cutting board?
First off, NEVER put your cutting board in a dishwasher! While this may sound appropriate, especially after dicing up a few pounds of smoked brisket, the high temperatures and moisture will cause the glue lines in your board to come undone. To safely wash your board, simply clean it with cold or lukewarm water and light dish soap. This will eliminate the chances of damaging your board and help retain the Cutting Board Oil conditioning.
What does NSF Certified mean?
In the United States, NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) is synonymous with certifying products as safe for food-contact surfaces. It's considered the gold standard for restaurants and food production facilities. Earning NSF certification is a rigorous and costly process, underscoring why Walrus Oil stands out as one of the best products for cutting boards and butcher block. Walrus Oil proudly holds NSF certification for its Cutting Board Oil, Wood Wax, and Cast Iron Oil, all of which are certified safe for food-contact surfaces and every ingredient is also GRAS (generally regarded as safe) by the FDA.
Can you use Walrus Oil on epoxy resin boards?
Our Cutting Board Oil can be used to treat hardwood and epoxy based cutting boards, sometimes called "river boards" or "epoxy boards". All application steps are the same. To achieve the highest sheen possible, we recommend applying a coat of our Wood Wax after the Cutting Board Oil application.
