December 07, 2022

Moldy cutting board can be treated with high temperature, salt, white vinegar, etc., as detailed below.

The best and simplest way to use high heat to sterilize a wood cutting board is to use boiling water. It is better to boil hot water, which is a good temperature. After boiling, put high-quality cutting board in it directly, soak it for about 20 minutes, and then take it out after high-temperature disinfection. After cooling, dry it with a clean cloth.

We can use salt to kill bacteria, you can directly apply salt on the cutting board, about a layer can be covered, so that a period of time can be placed, and then clean with water. Use a dry cloth to wipe it off. This salt method not only kills bacteria, but also prevents mildew on the cutting board.
White vinegar is also bactericidal. It can be directly poured on the wooden cutting board, and then the cutting board with white vinegar will be placed in the sun, and then directly irradiated in the sun for half an hour or so, so that it has a good disinfection effect.
It is best to put the cutting board in a dry environment. After using the cutting board, it is also best to wash it and wipe the surface of the cutting board dry, so that the moisture-proof effect is better. Never put the cutting board directly in the pool.

How can I avoid moldy cutting board
Each time after using the wooden cutting board, it should be cleaned in time. After washing, it should be placed in a ventilated place to dry, to keep the quality of the cutting board dry, to avoid the propagation of bacteria. If the contact surface is not well ventilated, then the cutting board is prone to mold and blackening.
Avoid using both sides of a cutting board, as the other side is often in contact with the countertop, which will have more bacteria, leading to a large number of bacteria directly into the food.
Do not place the cutting board against the wall or flat on the cutting board, because the side against the wall or down the side will not dry out, and will easily mold. It's best to buy a special shelf for the cutting board and stand the cutting board on the shelf.
It is not recommended to clean the cutting board with a wire ball or something that may scratch the flat cutting board. It is easy to make many scratches on the cutting board, which is easy to mold and make cleaning difficult.
