Cutting board made of beech wood with a handle and diagonally filed sides
Beech cutting boards are a popular choice among home and professional chefs alike due to several features that set them apart from other types of cutting boards:
-
Durability: Beech is a hard and dense type of wood, making it more resistant to knife cuts and scratches. This means that with proper care, a beech cutting board can last for many years.
-
Hygiene: Beech has a closed wood surface, which makes it less susceptible to moisture and germ formation. This makes it a good choice for cutting boards as it ensures a clean and hygienic surface for food preparation.
-
Knife friendliness: Beech has a dense, hard surface that is gentle on knife blades and helps keep them sharper for longer.
-
Aesthetics: Beech is a beautiful wood species with a light wood grain, making it a stylish and attractive addition to any kitchen.
-
Sustainability: Beech is one of the most readily available types of wood in Europe, making it an environmentally friendly choice for a cutting board.
