What to do if your cutting board starts to smell bad: a secret method that has helped more than one housewife
Wooden tableware and accessories have been popular among housewives for many years now.
We should “thank” them for this due to their inherent environmental friendliness and pleasant, even somewhat cozy, appearance.
However, kitchen utensils made of wood have one significant drawback: they can easily absorb a wide variety of odors.
This problem is especially relevant for cutting boards, which often become a source of unpleasant “aromas”.
If you are faced with a similar problem, you should not count on the help of regular dishwashing detergent and other household chemicals.
They can only slightly mask the smell, but not neutralize it.
Instead, to get rid of odors, simply wipe the board with half a lemon.
Citrus juice will eliminate even the most persistent odors, after which you can once again use your wooden cutting board for its intended purpose.
