Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The board arrives ready to use. Simply remove any packaging.
Compatibility: This board is suitable for serving a wide variety of foods, including hot dishes (straight from oven), cold platters, cheeses, charcuterie, bread, and pastries. It is compatible with most dining tables and kitchen countertops due to its protective non-slip feet. It is *not* recommended for use as a primary cutting board for raw ingredients, as knives can scratch the marble surface.
Care:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and warm water. Dry thoroughly immediately after washing to prevent water spots.
- Stain Prevention: Wipe up spills, especially acidic liquids like wine or citrus juice, immediately to prevent staining or etching.
- Protection: Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the marble.
- Sealing: For enhanced stain resistance, you may occasionally re-seal the marble with a food-safe stone sealer, following the sealer manufacturer's instructions.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: While heat-resistant, avoid exposing the board to extreme temperature fluctuations. Do not place it on a stovetop or under a broiler.
