Ingredients
  • Coarse, rock salt (that means big chunky salt. If you don’t have this, regular salt will probably work).
  • Baking soda
  • Lemon, probably only need half of a lemon
Instructions
  1. First sprinkle salt on top of the stain. Using a lemon half scrub the salt. This will release lemon juice onto the stain and the salt will start to “scratch” away the stain. Add more salt and keep scrubbing if needed. For more abrasion you can use a toothbrush (a clean one) or a scrub brush. Be careful for things like steel wood that could damage the wood.
  2. Then sprinkle baking soda over the stain. It will bubble from the lemon juice (exciting, right?). Then use an abrasive sponge or scrubber (I have homemade ones from grandma), scrub the stain. Lots of elbow grease. Lots.
  3. After your done scrubbing – rinse cutting board off and wipe vigorously with a wet dish towel. Like you’re washing a dish. Then wipe down and dry. It’s important to DRY it well, sitting water could warp your cutting board.
