Question from cjjtmecanz
I have to new wooden spoon that I need to know how to keep clean. One is Bambo and the other Birch wood. Can you tell me how to keep the spoons clean? Food grade mineral oil is what the shop offered as a option. Is mineral oil in any form safe? What else can I use?
Debra’s Answer
I just wash my wooden spoons with soap and water with the rest of the dishes and do nothing else to them.
However, if you do want to protect your spoons or any other woodenware, here’s a past post where we discussed this thoroughly: Q&A: Wood Conditioner for Cutting Boards and Bowls.
