Cleaning you cutting board

Cleaning your cutting board

The cutting board I have has metal pull outs so you can USE the board over the sink

After cleaning my cutting board I left an old metal baking pan ON TOP OF IT and in the morning MY BOARD HAD black STAINS on it.

This is how I got the DEEP stains out.

I squeezed lemon juice on it AND LET IT SIT FOR AN HOUR it didn’t seem like it was helping THAT MUCH, so I then grinded up some Himalayan pink and rubbed the stains for about half an hour---

I then squeezed more lemon juice on it and more salt ---helped more

Then I squeezed more lemon juice on it MIXED IN WITH THE SALT and let it set for an hour, finally the stains disappeared.

LESSON LEARNED WHILE YOUR CUTTING BOARD IS DRYING DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON TOP OF IT.

Just wanted to share my story in cause it happens to you

Thanks for the suggestion. I had heard that a moist salt mixture was often used to clean the wooden ones. Glad you had success!
