Setting Up Your NEW Yamazaki Stainless Bamboo Cheese Tray

1. Clean the tray: Before your first use, wash both the stainless steel and bamboo sections with warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
2. Arrange your cheeses: Place a variety of cheeses on the stainless steel portion, considering textures and flavors. Hard cheeses, soft cheeses, and a blue cheese offer a good balance.
3. Add accompaniments: Arrange crackers, sliced baguette, fruits, nuts, olives, or dried meats on the bamboo section.
4. Garnish (optional): A sprig of rosemary, a few grapes, or a drizzle of honey can add a touch of elegance.

Caring for Your Yamazaki Stainless Bamboo Cheese Tray

• Hand wash recommended: While the stainless steel is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended for both sections to maintain the bamboo’s beauty.
• Avoid harsh chemicals: Use mild dish soap and avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Dry thoroughly: After washing, dry the tray completely to prevent water damage to the bamboo.
• Oil the bamboo (occasionally): Applying a food-safe mineral oil can help maintain the bamboo’s luster and prevent cracking.

“Proper care is essential for preserving the beauty of bamboo,” advises John Carter, a woodworking expert from Portland. “Regular oiling helps keep it hydrated and prevents damage from moisture.”
