Cutting Boards

Cutting boards come in plastic and wood varieties. Everyone should have some thin plastic cutting boards and some heavy duty wood or plastic cutting boards.

Thin plastic
A thin board turns out to be flexible. We like flexible cutting boards because you can more easily transfer food into the pan. Another reason is that you can store a lot of thin boards in the same space as one big thick one. The primary reason we use cutting boards is so that we don't ruin the countertop and for hygienic reasons. Thin flexible cutting boards fit both requirements. Most people like to have several of these on hand. The downside is that they will need replaced every few years (if you cook a lot).

Heavy Wood and Plastic
Imagine cutting up frozen meat on a thin plastic board. It's not going to give you the protection you need. For this reason, you should have at least one heavy duty wood or plastic cutting board. Large boards are often left out on the countertop. In this case, you will want to match the cutting board with your home decor. Keep in mind that wood has an elegant look while plastic is more hygienic.

Caution
Don't use marble, glass, stone, ceramic and other hard surfaces for cutting boards because they damage knives. They can dull, blunt or nick a blade.
