Cutting board

The second most important tool in the kitchen, a thick wooden board will change how you cook. Good, solid boards won’t crack or warp and will last a long time. Get a board that suits your space, but as big as your space allows, so you have room to work. I like a thick board on rubber feet so water doesn’t accumulate under my board and the little feet hold it in place. Bamboo is also a great choice as they’re lighter and naturally anti-bacterial. Don’t even think about those flimsy roll-up plastic ones…just don’t.
