Finding Your Perfect Wooden Serving Platter
Choosing the right serving platter involves considering both aesthetics and functionality:
- Size and Shape: Determine the ideal size and shape based on your serving needs. Round platters are perfect for shared appetizers, while rectangular or oval platters are excellent for main courses and larger gatherings.
- Wood Type: Each wood species possesses unique characteristics. Acacia wood, known for its durability and rich grain patterns, is an excellent choice for serving platters.
- Handles: Platters with handles offer added convenience, making it easier to transport food from the kitchen to the dining area.
- Style: From minimalist designs to intricate carvings, choose a style that complements your personal aesthetic and existing tableware.
A Tip From Robert Kline: “When selecting a wooden serving platter, consider the overall aesthetic you want to achieve. For a modern farmhouse look, opt for a platter with clean lines and a natural finish. If you prefer a more rustic ambiance, choose a platter with a live edge or distressed finish.”
Caring for Your Handcrafted Wooden Treasures
Proper care ensures the longevity and beauty of your wooden serving platters:
- Handwashing is Key: Always handwash your wooden platters with warm, soapy water. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaning tools.
- Dry Immediately: After washing, immediately dry your platter with a soft cloth.
- Occasional Oiling: To prevent drying and cracking, treat your wooden platter with a food-safe mineral oil every few months. Apply a thin coat of oil, let it sit for a few hours, then wipe off any excess.
