Whether you like your chopping board to be modern or traditional, colourful or plain, practical or decorative, there is a good selection on the market. You can even have your name or a message engraved on a chopping board.
1. Hevea garlic board
Dunelm Mill brings us this wonderful Hevea garlic board. The idea of having a separate board for garlic does not immediately spring to mind, but once it does, it does sound like a very good idea and helps avoid garlic getting into other foods by mistake. The wooden board has ‘Garlic’ printed on the front and a picture of some garlic at the bottom. At the moment the price is reduced to £2.49.
2. End grain butchers block
We love this end grain butchers block from the Cooks Kitchen. Sitting on elevated feet and made from beechwood, it looks very sturdy. The butchers block is available in two sizes – square or rectangular, and costs £36.63 to £36.99.
3. Joseph Joseph cut and carve plus small chopping board
We do love Joseph Joseph. This Joseph Joseph cut and carve plus small chopping board in green has an integral meat grip on one side, and a smooth cutting surface on the other. It is dishwasher safe, with soft grip sides and nongrip feet. You can buy it from the Art of Living website for £14.
