    Olive oil on Bamboo Cutting Board

    it should. the oil keeps the wood from drying out..once it dries out it will start to splinter. plus if it gets wet while it's dry like that, you really up your chances of your board turning into a twisted bunch of something or other. i didnt oil my very first board. with in two months it had...

    Olive oil on Bamboo Cutting Board

    further backing it up..anything for cooking will go rancid veg, walnut, olive..whatever whatever. oil JUST for your board will not cost you very much, and will last a good amount of time. i oil both mine once a week and i haven't even used half the bottle and had it over a year now.

    I Hate the Vintage Stuff

    you know, i came to a decision a long time ago that different things for my kitchen should always be used and never new..im talking like aluminum cookware, cast iron stuff, .....stuff that the ware and tare tells you of the quality of the product.

    Does my food look bad?

    that's what I was thinking as well. However I use the same tech in a lot of my stuff. focus a great deal on a specific section..usually parts that most of the colors can be seen and where the texture is most notable. I've had a few people comment on it recently saying they really enjoy that in...

    Does my food look bad?

    Tea recommendations?

    yeah the thread has a main focus on black and im more of a green dude. I do love Bancha but I've already noticed a rise in it's price. Assam is like my fourth favorite. Right now I've been drinking a great deal of basic good quality Japanese pan and oolongs.

    Black tea - What is your favourite type?

    for whatever reason I just can't do Black teas other then Chai. I've gone through a lot of them hoping it would happen but every time I drink black tea im just not as impressed as I am with my greens. Had a friend hook me up with lady and earl grey, prepared it three different ways; clean, milk...

    Does my food look bad?

    oh yes..I was going to say something about the clam dish... for sure way to much clam and also I noticed it was very light on the sauce...to me it didnt really look like a enough to coat the pasta..if that is the case you might want to think about an oil drizzle on it. A dish like that, you...
