Soup Making Tips -
Cutting Boards
When you are preparing your ingredients for soup, there are different kinds of cutting boards you can use. Glass boards are the most sanitary and heat-resistant, plastic cutting boards are less expensive and wood cutting boards are the easiest on knife edges. The key with cutting boards and safety is maintenance. Always wash cutting boards with hot soapy water. Run them with dishes in the dishwasher if possible. Have two cutting boards, one for meats like chicken, and another for fresh herbs and vegetables.
