How to care your Southern Yellow Pine board?

Wax regularly

The board butter will moisturize the board to avoid splitting, checking and provide protection from stain of pigmented food. It will also revive the wood color.
Once every two weeks is a good practice, but as a rule of thumb;"when the board looks dry".

Handwash only - never put in dishwasher.

Do not soak in water - Wipe with damp cloths after light use. If rinsing with water, wipe excess moisture with dry cloths afterwards. Use mild soap and gentle scrub. Do not use metal scrub.

Do not put under direct sun.



How to clean food stain from SYP board.

We recommend to prevent using SYP board with pigmented food like avocado, dragon fruit or turmeric.

Hardwood board with denser grain (like our Chengal board) or edge grain board is more suitable for pigmented food like avocado, dragon fruit or turmeric.

But if you are a hardcore cooks, go ahead. Buffing the board with board butter before such task reduce the stain leftover significantly.

Wiping the stain area with Vinegar and baking soda will also help to remove the stain.

Good thing is, the stain will disappear over usage and time.
