Larch Wood Canada End Grain Cutting Board, Standard Line, for Professional Chefs & Home Cooking

Larch Wood Canada's Professional 'End Grain' Cutting Boards are handcrafted by local craftsmen from the indigenous Eastern Canadian Larch on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. These cutting boards are designed to last a lifetime with proper care.

Maintenance Instructions: - Never submerge the board in water or place it in a dishwasher. - Avoid areas of concentrated heat and never place a hot skillet, pot, or lid directly on the board. - For the first month, apply Larch Wood Cutting Board Beeswax and Mineral Oil Conditioner to all surfaces weekly to allow the board to adapt to its environment. - After the initial seasoning, a monthly treatment is recommended to prevent the wood fibers from drying out. Apply a thin coat of the conditioner and buff to a shine with a soft, dry cloth.

Cleaning: - Use a moist cloth or sponge to remove any dirt. - Sticky residue can be cleaned by using a small amount of mild detergent and the scrubby side of a sponge while holding the board under warm running water. - For a more thorough cleaning, apply salt to the board and rub with a sponge dampened with lemon juice.

Storage: - Avoid storing the board in hot areas, such as near direct sunlight or heat sources. - Dry the cutting board carefully before storing in a cupboard.

Larch Wood Canada: Specialists in 'End-Grain' Cutting Boards Founded in 2003, Larch Wood Canada creates premium cutting boards that combine artistry, craftsmanship, functionality, and sustainability. Nestled along the Margaree River on Cape Breton Island, Canada, the company sources its renewable larch (Larix laricina) wood from local, sustainably managed woodlots.

The durable end-grain/butcher block construction of Larch Wood Canada's products provides a smooth, impact-resistant cutting surface that is kind to knives. This makes their cutting boards a practical choice for chefs in busy commercial kitchens or for daily use at home. The vertically aligned wood fibers separate to accept the knife and then close up after cutting, and the boards are easy on knives, resisting nicks and gouges.

Larch Wood Canada's cutting boards are handcrafted with a 30-step process from log to finished product, ensuring high-quality control and attention to detail. The company takes pride in providing cutting boards that are considered focal points in customers' kitchens and works of functional art.

Larch Wood Canada's Standard Line Large cutting board, measuring 21-5/8" x 13" x 1-3/4" and weighing 11.5 lbs, offers ample working surface for serious or aspiring chefs. Soft rubber feet attached with stainless steel screws enable easy pick-up and prevent slipping. The natural characteristics of the larch wood, such as small knots and color variations, are visible in these boards.
