This set of four high-quality chopping boards is not only a functional tool for your kitchen, but also a decorative accessory that elevates any culinary space. Made from durable teak wood, these boards are ideal for cutting, preparing and presenting food, bringing style and practicality to your kitchen. Their versatility allows them to be used for both food preparation and for presenting dishes directly on the table. In addition, the set includes a stand for safe storage and an anti-bacterial coating to ensure maximum hygiene with every use.
Durability and natural elegance
Teak wood is known for its resistance to moisture, which makes it a perfect material for the kitchen environment. Unlike other woods, teak does not warp or crack easily, maintaining its integrity for years. These planks are made from high quality teak, which not only ensures durability, but also provides a natural aesthetic finish. The smooth surface is ideal for cutting meats, vegetables or breads, without the edge of your knives wearing out quickly. In addition, the warm colour and grain of the teak wood adds a rustic and sophisticated touch to your kitchen.
Improved food hygiene
One of the main advantages of this set is its antibacterial protective coating. This feature is essential to ensure safe food preparation, as it reduces the build-up of bacteria and makes it easier to clean afterwards. This makes the boards more hygienic and contributes to food safety, especially when working with raw products such as meat and fish. With this protection, you can be sure that the food you prepare will be safe for your family and friends.
From kitchen to table in style
Not only for cutting and preparation, but thanks to their elegant design, these boards can also be used as serving plates. They are perfect for presenting cheeses, cold meats, breads, or any appetizer at a meeting or dinner party. Their dimensions (34 x 21,6 x 1,8 cm) offer enough space to create attractive presentations, while the solid wood supports heavy foods without any problem. Imagine presenting an assortment of cheeses and fresh fruit on one of these boards, adding a touch of style to your table that will impress your guests.
Practical and ventilated storage
The set includes a practical stand specifically designed to store the boards vertically. This stand is not only functional by allowing quick and tidy access, but is also essential for keeping the boards in perfect condition. When stored vertically, the boards remain well ventilated, which prevents odours from building up or retaining moisture that can affect the quality of the wood. In addition, the compact stand (24.5 x 11.5 x 5 cm) is ideal for keeping your kitchen organised, taking up little space on your worktop.
Maintenance and care of cutting boards
To ensure that these boards will last for many years, it is crucial to follow some basic maintenance steps:
- Hand washing: After each use, clean the boards with warm water and mild soap. Do not use the dishwasher, as extreme moisture and heat can damage the wood.
- Immediate drying: Dry the boards with a clean cloth immediately after washing to prevent the wood from absorbing too much moisture.
- Regular oiling: To keep the wood in optimal condition, apply a thin layer of mineral or teak oil every two to three weeks. This will help maintain the wood's natural moisture and protect it from cracks and stains.
- Proper storage: Always store the boards in a well-ventilated area, using the included stand. Avoid storing them in closed drawers or cupboards where the lack of air circulation could cause mould or warping of the wood.
Recipe for Mediterranean Salad with Hummus and Roasted Pita
This recipe uses the cutting board set not only as a preparation tool, but also as an elegant serving dish. The Mediterranean salad with hummus and roasted pita is a colourful and fresh dish, ideal for a light meal or as a starter for dinner. Each element can be presented aesthetically on the teak boards, adding style to the table.
Ingredients:
- 1 tin of chickpeas (400 g)
- 2 tablespoons of tahini
- 2 cloves of garlic
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cucumber
- 1 red pepper
- 1 red onion
- 200 g of cherry tomatoes
- Fresh mint leaves
- Fresh parsley leaves
- 2 pita breads
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sweet paprika for garnish
Preparation:
- Prepare the hummus: Drain and rinse the chickpeas. In a blender or food processor, add the chickpeas, tahini, garlic cloves, lemon juice, and olive oil. Blend until smooth. If it is too thick, add a little cold water to thin it out. Adjust the salt and lemon juice to taste. Transfer the hummus to a bowl and sprinkle with a little paprika and olive oil to garnish.
- Cut the vegetables: Wash the cucumber, tomatoes, red pepper and onion thoroughly. Cut the cucumber into thin slices, the cherry tomatoes in half, the pepper into thin strips and the onion into thin rings. Finely chop the mint and parsley.
- Toast the pita bread: Cut the pita bread into triangles and toast them in a frying pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown and crispy. This will give them a crunchy texture that contrasts with the softness of the hummus.
- Assemble the salad: Place a generous portion of hummus in the centre of the teak board. Arrange the chopped vegetables around it in separate groups for an attractive presentation: the cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, pepper strips and onion rings. Sprinkle the fresh herbs on top and place the toasted pita triangles on the side.
Presentation:
Use one of the elegant teak cutting boards to present this dish.
