Wood Cutting

I have a new wood cutting board and looking for info on how to “season” it or what ?
I think that it is made of alderwood. It came with a Amercian Standard sink that I purchased. Nothing in the box about it’s care, or store.
Your new cutting board might be maple, but is probably beech wood. I just bought one for a customer that was sold as maple , but was in reality ,beech , which is just as good. I would have made one, but the one I bought was the right lenght and only 2″ too wide. And I saved my client $50. Unless it says its alder , I doubt that it is , because alder is pretty soft. Anyway. Go to the local Home center and buy what is sold as “butcher block oil” . Its really just Mineral oil but they call it that so you think you are getting something special. Menards has 8oz. for about $3.50. Get some short 2x4s and drive 2, 3″ nails thru them. Turn them up side down , so you can rest the cutting board on the tips of the nails. This way you can treat both sides of the board at once. Drench one side of the board with oil , smearing it around with a small rag. Small rag because it will soak up the oil and you dont want to waist it. Turn the board over and do the other side and the edges. Let it dry a couple of hours and do it again. let it dry over nite , then do it again . Repete this process untill the oil is gone . Unless you use the board every day this treament should last a while. I would retreat at least every 3 to 4 months, or when it just looks dry. Just wipe with a damp rag to clean it ,never put soap on it. If it gets something on it you cant get off, sand it off with sand paper and retreat it. Viola!
