Using this Epicurean cutting board is a piece of cake. Just place it on your kitchen counter and start slicing, dicing, and chopping your fruits, vegetables, meats, and more. The handle makes it easy to pick up and move around. When you're done, you can simply toss it in the dishwasher for a quick and easy clean. If you prefer, you can also wash it by hand with warm, soapy water. As for maintenance, there's not much to do. Just make sure to dry it thoroughly after each use to prevent any warping. It's heat resistant up to 350°F / 176°C, but avoid direct contact with extremely hot items.
