Mold on cutting boards may pose a threat to food safety, so we need to clean them in time. The following are some common cleaning methods:
1. Clean with vinegar and water: Mix white vinegar and water in a ratio of 1:2, soak the cutting board in the vinegar water for 10-15 minutes, and then scrub the cutting board with a brush surface, and finally rinse it with clean water.
2. Use salt water for cleaning: Mix salt and water at a ratio of 1:10 and stir evenly. Soak the cutting board in salt water for 20 minutes, then scrub the surface of the cutting board with a brush, and finally rinse it with clean water. .
3. Use lemon for cleaning: cut the lemon, apply lemon juice on the surface of the cutting board, let it sit for 15 minutes, then scrub the surface of the cutting board with a brush, and finally rinse it with water.
It should be noted that after use, the cutting board should be dried and placed in a ventilated and dry place to avoid the growth of mold in a humid environment. In addition, it is best to use chopping boards in categories to avoid using the same chopping board to cut different types of ingredients to avoid cross-contamination.
