Care of Wood Tongs

Wood tongs should only be hand washed with mild soap and water.  Hand dry after washing.   Never soak tongs in water and never place tongs in a dishwasher.

Apply food grade mineral oil to your tongs frequently, at least once a month.

If you ever nick, dent, or cut your tong, a sanding with fine grain sandpaper followed by a fresh coat of mineral oil can usually do wonders.
