Wood care
Always hand wash wood utensils with soap and warm water The harsh detergent and heat in the dishwasher will wreck the wood in just a few cycles
Dry wooden spoons with a towel instead of letting them air dry Residual moisture from washing will get absorbed into the wood, causing the wood to swell and crack over time
Once a month or so, rub in a little mineral oil with a soft cloth and let it sit for a few hours Mineral oil is a food safe product that won't go rancid the way olive oil or other cooking oils would It gets absorbed quickly, leaving wooden handles smooth but not greasy
