Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No assembly is required. The set is ready for use straight out of the box. Simply wash the platter and knives before the first use.
Compatibility: The slate platter is food-safe and suitable for direct contact with all types of food, including cheeses, fruits, meats, and baked goods. The knives are designed for use with cheese but can also be used for spreading other foods.
Care Instructions:
- Platter: Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap. Dry thoroughly immediately after washing to prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the slate. Do not place hot items directly onto the slate as it may cause thermal shock and crack.
- Knives: Hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Dry immediately. For best results, apply a food-safe mineral oil to the wooden handles (if applicable) occasionally to prevent drying and cracking.
- Maintenance: To maintain the slate's finish, you can occasionally apply a food-grade mineral oil to the surface and buff it out. This helps to seal the pores and enhance its deep black color.
