What wood is best for cutting boards?
1 Answer
The best wood for a cutting board is one wood that is not open-pored or soft. Open-pored woods tend to stain easily, while soft woods show cutting scars from knives. Therefore, it is best to opt for maple, beech, teak, or walnut when choosing a cutting board.
