[Chilmong] Korean Ottchil Cutting Board (Maple Wood)
Korean Ottchil Cutting Board
[Chilmong] Korean Ottchil Lacquered Cutting Board (Korean Maple)
Introducing the Latest Korean Ottchil Product from Chilmong: Ottchil Cutting Board
For those who spend a lot of time in the kitchen, a large wooden cutting board is an essential tool — truly the workhorse of food preparation.
When deciding between plastic and wood cutting boards, we believe wood is the superior choice.
It’s durable, gentle on knives, smooth yet not slippery, and firm enough to absorb impact while offering stability.
Next comes the question of which type of wooden board to choose? End-grain boards are very popular, which are made by gluing together small pieces of wood with adhesives like Titebond. However, if these boards crack or get damaged, the chemical adhesive may become exposed.
That’s why many in Korea prefer a entire slab of wood. While more expensive, it’s far more durable and worry-free.
Chilmong’s Whole Slab Ottchil Maple Cutting Board meets the high standards of Korean home cooks:
This cutting board is crafted from a whole slab of maple wood, which is softer on knife blades compared to harder woods, bamboo, or plastic. While maple is technically classified as a hardwood, it’s soft enough to prevent excessive wear on your knives.
An additional advantage of maple is its small pores, which reduce the absorption of food liquids and detergents—both of which can lead to bacteria growth over time.
(Yes, it's Kimchi Safe!)
Chilmong elevates this board by applying six layers of Korean Ottchil lacquer.
Ottchil, a natural sap harvested from Korean Ott trees, has been used for centuries to finish wood in both art and kitchenware. When properly applied and dried, it creates a 99.9% antibacterial surface—making it an ideal material for a cutting board!
What sets Chilmong’s Ottchil lacquer apart is its high urushiol content. Urushiol is the compound responsible for the lacquer's durability, resulting in a thicker, more resilient coating with enhanced gloss and clarity. It also provides superior resistance to heat, water, insects, and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting protection and durability.
Thanks to this Ottchil finish, the cutting board requires minimal maintenance. Unlike traditional wooden boards, which need to be regularly conditioned with food-grade mineral oil to prevent drying or warping, Chilmong’s lacquered board stays protected without any need for additional care!
If you're considering a new cutting board, this expertly crafted piece from Chilmong is an excellent choice.
Note: All wooden cutting boards, including this one, will show knife marks over time—this is normal. Even with visible knife marks, the Ottchil layer remains intact and continues to protect the cutting board. Do not worry!
Editor’s Tip: Never wash wooden cutting boards in the dishwasher. Always hand-wash them with soap and hot water and allow them to dry upright on a rack, making sure the bottom isn’t left in pooled water.
