Walnut Wood Cutting Board
A large end-grain walnut cutting board with a juice groove and a little compartment to push chopped ingredients into.
$46.99
This is a 17×13-inch end-grain walnut board. Big enough to prep multiple things at once without running out of room. The built-in compartment lets you slide chopped onions or garlic to the side without grabbing extra bowls.
It comes with beeswax paste and a brush, so someone can maintain it right away. The juice groove catches liquid if they're slicing tomatoes or resting meat.
You have to hand wash it. If someone's used to throwing everything in the dishwasher, this isn't the right fit.
Why it works
- Plenty of room to work — 17×13 inches is bigger than most.
- Built-in sorting compartment means fewer dishes mid-prep.
- Comes with beeswax and a brush to keep it in shape.
Who it's for
- Someone who preps dinner most nights and needs more space.
- A person who likes making charcuterie or snack boards.
What to know
- Hand wash only — not dishwasher safe.
- End-grain boards need occasional oiling to keep from drying out.
