Cutting Board LA Classique

The Opinel cutting board La Classique is a classic cutting board for cutting bread and vegetables. The cutting board is large enough to cut a long piece of bread, but not so large it will take up too much room on your counter top. The edges on the bottom of the board are bevelled to make sure it is easy to hold. These edges and the beech wood used ensure that the board weighs next to nothing. Not enough room to store your cutting board on your counter top? Hang it by using the hole.

Cleaning the cutting board

To make sure your board stays in great shape maintenance is key! Fortunately, this isn’t as time consuming as you might think. Clean the board after use by rinsing it off under the tap. Afterwards dry it properly. Never put the board in the dishwasher! Place it upright (or hang it) to make sure it dries properly.

Adding oil to your board

A wooden cutting board needs to be maintained. To make sure it stays in great shape, we recommend adding oil to both sides of the board. It makes cleaning the board easier, the wood won’t dry out and it also makes sure scratches are less visible. When adding oil to a cutting board it is best if you use a flavourless and odourless oil. Almond or grapeseed oil, for instance. (Please note: we don’t recommend using almond oil if you are allergic to nuts). White mineral oil is also a good option, but we recommend Eden Cutting Board Oil. Do not use olive oil because it gets sticky and dirty. Something you wish to avoid, of course. You need to add oil to your board approx. once a month. You can read more about maintaining your cutting board in this article.
