There are a lot of cutting boards out there with interesting features, and people always ask that what are the featuers of a good cutting board. Including wacky features like scales, “knife sanitizers”, folding joints, and so on are great if you are a gadget enthusiast. Here, We conclude with 5 useful features of cutting board.
Juice Groove
Adding a juice groove to the cutting board surface can keep runaway liquids at bay and off your counters. This feature adds a decorative element to any board while being extremely functional as well. Grooves can be added around the entire circumference of the board, only on a single edge, or any combination. The cutting board with groove is ideal for cutting juicy vegetables, fruits and carving meat. The juice groove design is usually suitable for the plastic cutting board and wooden cutting board.
Non-slip rubber
Rubber is a very common material for plastic cutting board material. The added stability of non-slip rubber feet is great for safety and lets the user focus on his knife technique rather than holding down the board. Elevation of the board from the countertop also aids in ensuring the bottom surface gets airflow, dries properly when washed, and does not accumulate moisture in use which can lead to cracking and warping issues if not caught promptly.
Folding Joints
The folds of chopping boards can form a chute, which makes it easy to transfer chopped food into a pot or pan without dropping any along the way. This features requires resilient material and therefore only is feasible for plastic cutting boards.
Handle
The handle can either be an external component fixed on the cutting board or a hollow hole within the cutting board itself. Regardless of the type of handle, it makes the cutting board easy to pick up, move around, or even flip when you want to use the reverse side.
Textured Surface
A textured cutting surface can increase the friction between food, especially for meat, and cutting surface, which can not only keep food stable when cutting, but also prevent your knife from slipping or becoming dull.
