Cutting Board Conditioner, Wood Wax, Board Butter

Board Butter, Board Conditioner, Cutting Board Conditioner, Board Cream, Board Rub, Wood Wax, Wood Oil, Wood Butter - many different names that all do the same thing which is to protect, condition, and maintain your cutting board, charcuterie board, butcher block, or any other wooden item such as bowls, rolling pins, or wooden utensils. My Board Butter is a mixture of oil and wax. I use Food Grade White Mineral Oil and Food Safe Organic White Beeswax pellets. This is a semi-soft mixture, not as creamy as peanut butter but a little more firm. Mineral Oil will soak into the pores of the wood to nourish dry wood and prevent cracking, and the Beeswax leaves a protective film on the surface that helps repel water and bring out the natural beauty of the wood. Apply whenever your cutting board looks dry. If you let a cutting board dry out from repeated washings that's when knife marks will show more readily, and in worst cases when the wood can split. This Board Butter won't prevent knife marks of course, but it will help reduce them since the wood fibers are soft instead of brittle. Board Butter will help your cutting board look new again. Use a paper towel or cloth to rub Board Butter into the surface in a circular motion, let it soak in for 10 or 15 minutes to overnight, and then use a clean cloth or paper towel to wipe or buff off any excess that hasn't soaked in. Your cutting board is ready to use immediately after. Apply as often as needed.
