Mineral oil is wood’s best friend! I use it on my cutting boards, and it works like a dream. Thanks for the great tip 🙂

In reply to Cheryl "Cheffie Cooks" Wiser. If they are dry give them a mineral oil treatment and they will be good as new, Cheryl!

Great tip Debbie! I do this to my wooden cutting boards routinely. I let it set for 15 minutes and then wipe it off. It keeps them sealed so not everything tastes like garlic!

In reply to Dor. It really brings them back and the mineral oil is safe for food consumption. Just allow them to sit for a day or so to soak in. Dry then excess off with a clean towel.

Great idea! I have been avoiding wooden salad bowls for just that reason – the dried out look. But now there is the lovely solution. 🙂
