My Favorite Cutting Board Tip

Last night, I was quartering potatoes to make our favorite Old Bay potato dish. Yes, we now live in Maryland and have fully embraced Old Bay. We put it on everything.

While I was cutting countless potatoes, I thought to myself, “I need to share this tip.” What tip, do you ask?

Here’s my favorite cutting board tip. Ready for it?

My Favorite Cutting Board Tip

Dampen a cloth towel or a paper towel. Place the damp towel under the cutting board.

Voila.

You no longer have a cutting board that slides all over the place, creating a scary knife/finger situation.

And there you have it. My short, sweet, and favorite cutting board tip.

So, the next time you have some chopping, quartering, or slicing to do, break out a damp paper towel, a cutting board, and sharp knife and get to work as you efficiently and safely slice and dice.
