Yes. Tamarind wood is hard, durable, and knife-friendly. They make excellent wooden chopping boards. It is moisture-resistant, less prone to cracking, and stronger than most other wood types. They are also one of the few proven woods that have stood the test of time. It has been used for chopping boards and butcher boards in South India for centuries.

Teak wood cutting boards are famous for their antibacterial features and water resistance. Acacia, on the other hand, is a beautiful wood that is tough. Tamarind is cheaper than teak and acacia, stands the test of time, has better longevity, and higher resistance to wear. The wood has a striking appearance which is loved by some.

The chopping board can be washed with warm water and mild soap. Dry immediately after washing with a towel. You can sanitise the board once a week or whenever needed with a salt and lemon scrub. Do not use harsh chemicals. Oil the board when it feels dry with a food-safe mineral oil or organic coconut oil.

We source them from reliable suppliers and ensure they are put to good use instead of being burned. Handmade chopping boards by Amra Farms are designed with the environment in mind.

It is not true that tamarind wood is expensive. Tamarind wood is relatively cheaper than many other woods including teak. The higher price of tamarind wood products is mostly due to the difficulty in working with the wood due to its density. Since tamarind wood is dense, working with it takes time and more effort and use of heavy-duty tools, making products crafted from tamarind wood more expensive than the wood itself.

Tamarind wood is dense and tough. While this may be a good feature for a cutting board, it is also heavy and difficult to move around. Especially boards that are large could weigh anywhere between 2.5 kg to 6 kg for an extra-large cutting board. This may not be feasible for home use, especially when moving your board is required frequently.
