A wooden cutting board is probably one of the most used items in your kitchen. They come in so many shapes and sizes, that these boards can even be decorative. The biggest problem though is the fact that they can be so hard to clean and dry. Use these smart tips to make your kitchen life much easier.

Try Vinegar

Vinegar is such a magical liquid that can solve so many problems. If it can clean bathrooms, it can also clean your wooden cutting board. The vinegar will get to all the smallest cuts, while also destroying bacteria. Since you are using this board to cut a variety of foods, you want to be sure that there are no bacteria that can be transferred.

Don’t Soak It

Don’t ever let the board soak in water! It can cause damage and you won’t be able to repair.

Don’t Wash It In The Dishwasher

These boards are not made to be washed in the dishwasher. Always wash them by hand. The heat from the dishwasher can easily destroy the board, so you will not be able to use it anymore.

Baking Soda

Baking soda is another efficient way to clean a wooden cutting board. You should not do this every single time, but once every several uses.

Making homemade bread can be the best decision of your life, due to the many healthier options than your regular bakery products. However, a common frustration for cooks of all ages can be the infinite crumbles that are left behind. Why does this happen? Let’s find out.

There isn’t enough gluten

Despite gluten getting a bad rep, it’s still necessary for a good loaf of bread. It makes the structure whole and strong. Try getting a flour with more gluten.

There is too much flour

Many rookie bakers make the mistake of adding too much flour. This results in an overly dry loaf, prone to crumbling. Balancing the fluids and the flour is the key.

Too much yeast

A good amount of yeast means a high rise on your loaf. However, an excessive amount leads to the entire bread having an unstable structure, prone to crumbling.

You’ve been too modest with salt and fat

Salt and oil are actually very important to a loaf of bread. They keep the yeast under control. If yeast is overly abundant, there will be crumbles everywhere.

You didn’t knead the bread enough

Kneading can be tiring, but it is one of the most integral parts of every loaf. If you didn’t work hard enough, there might be a lot of crumbles in your bread loaf.
