How to Care for Wooden Bowls

Product Care (for all wood products): Wood bowls should not be soaked in water or used in a dishwasher or microwave. To clean the surface, a wet cloth or non-abrasive scrub pad should be used. Following cleaning, dry the surface with a dry cloth. For all wood products utilized for kitchen use (including bowls, cutting boards and utensils), it is recommended an occassional coating of mineral oil be applied (to the wood surface only) This process preserves the moisture content of the wood.
