Featherlight and Ultra-Durable, This Japanese Cutting Board is a Secret of Sushi Chefs
Made of lightweight, medium-soft cypress wood, this board keeps knives sharp, resists odors and heals itself.
Most cutting boards are too heavy, wear down knives and, over time, show ugly wear and tear. Hinoki boards, however, are lighttheir soft texture welcomes the knife blade, which makes chopping a pleasure and keeps razor-sharp edges, and they heal any marks leftover from cutting. Just wipe with a damp cloth and the wood grain swells, filling in any grooves.
Its a joy using this, compared to having to lug out your big, heavy wooden board for prep, says Haley Laube, Milk Streets eCommerce Culinary Coordinator. Weighing about half a pound, the Hinoki Cutting Board is ideal for small tasks, like prepping aromatics, chopping a single bunch of carrots or slicing cheese. The quick-dying board gets its piney, citrusy smell from resin, which naturally resists odors, water and microbes.

And Laube doesnt miss the real estate of a bigger board. This one, just smaller than a sheet of printer paper, keeps us organized and efficient: We shift stemmed mushrooms or minced shallot off the board and into the pan or prep bowls immediately. Pair it with our nonslip mat so the board doesnt budge.

Unlike typical wooden cutting boardswhich can be heavy, cumbersome and hard on kniveshinokis special properties make it Japans best-kept secret for food prep and knife maintenance. The medium-soft wood is gentle on knives. Every slice cuts into the hinoki a little, helping blades stay sharp in contrast to hard cutting surfaces like fabricated bamboo that have almost no give, eventually dulling knives. Hinokis soft, piney scent comes from its natural resin, or yani.
