MARBLE AND GRANITE CHOPPING BOARDS

Marble chopping board

Marble and granite kitchen accessories have been around for many years - but there’s been a surge in recent years in the number of chopping boards produced from these two types of rock.

Marble and granite often take the form of pestles and mortars, or more commonly as cheese boards, but their toughness and durability makes them ideal for producing chopping and cutting boards.

Both rocks are shiny and eloquent in appearance and many gourmets have added them to their kitchens to complement their marble of granite worktops.

 

 

Marble and granite chopping boards are easy to clean and their toughness means they are are unlikely to suffer any deep scratches from knives, reducing the risk of harmful bacteria finding a place to hide. However, this plus factor must be weighed against the fact this type of chopping board can take its toll on knife blades after a period of use.

Marble and granite boards are normally have non-slip rubber buttons on the base to prevent the risk of accidents from them sliding during chopping.

The surface of marble and granite is cool to the touch and that’s made them ideal for centuries for rolling dough and pastry.

Marble and granite chopping boards are traditionally black, white or grey in colour and the unique patterns running through them gives them an impressive appearance.

They are also excellent are resisting discolouration from food.

Marble is widely used for sculpture and as building material. It is a metamorphic rock.

Granite is also very hard and tough and has therefore always been an ideal stone for use in the construction industry. It is an igneous rock which was formed from magma.
