How to chop food like a pro
Choose a cutting board.
You can choose cutting boards made from wood, bamboo, or plastic. Plastic is lightweight and easy to store, but it can be difficult to clean.

OPTIONS:
- Resin boards are less likely to corrode, but make sure you choose a board that can be cleaned by clearing it of dirt and liquids. Remember that cardboard or paper items are more likely to break.
- You'll need to discard any plastic cutting boards that develop knife scars or ridges. Wood cutting boards have natural antiseptic properties that can help keep them clean.
- Wooden cutting boards are bad for chopping, since they are harder to clean and will spread dirt and germs throughout the food. Plastic will also wash away any germs.
- Bamboo is best for chopping fruits, vegetables, and grains. You can also buy cutting boards online that are specifically made for grinding, such as the variety you'd use for packing food.
