Helen's Asian Kitchen Bamboo Cutting Board makes food preparation a breeze! A workhorse in the kitchen for cutting, slicing, chopping, dicing, mincing, and everyday prep. A useful addition to kitchen tools, its ample size easily tackles any prep task, from snacks to family meals, cheese boards, holiday meals and more. It won't damage or dull knife blades, scratch surfaces, or ever warp. The beautiful two-tone design looks great on display to complement any decor or stows flat for easy storage in a kitchen cabinet. The handle makes transporting chopped ingredients extra easy. Made from 100-percent natural bamboo, Helen Chen's cutting board is lightweight, strong, and less absorbent than wood. Although bamboo is technically a grass, its tensile strength is comparable to that of steel, making it extremely strong and durable. It regenerates through a vast root system without need of replanting and boasts a record-breaking growth rate that surpasses any other known plant. For these reasons, bamboo is considered among the world's greatest renewable resources and the alternative used over traditional materials for the sustainable design of eco-friendly products, making it perfect for those concerned about more sustainable living. Hand wash only. Occasionally coat with mineral oil to keep bamboo looking its best.
