These slate chopping boards come from Epicurean's Kitchen Series, the original Epicurean boards. They are made in the USA from a paper composite that looks like wood but is thin, lightweight and fully dishwasher safe. Every board is dual-sided and has a hang hole in the corner for storage. Choose from four sizes, from a small board for a lemon or a block of cheese to a large one for a roast or a loaf. The surface is knife friendly, stain resistant and maintenance free, so there is no oiling and no special treatment.
- Four sizes: From 20cm x 15cm for small jobs up to 44cm x 32cm for larger preparation.
- Dual-sided: Both sides can be used, so you can keep one side for savoury and the other for sweet.
- Thin and lightweight: At 6mm thick, the boards are easy to lift, carry and store.
- Dishwasher safe: Made from paper composite that can go in the dishwasher, with no oiling or conditioning needed.
- Heat resistant: Withstands temperatures up to 176°C, so it can sit next to hot pans.

In our experience...
Why a thin board? A thin board is light, slides into a drawer or cupboard and fits in the dishwasher without taking up a rack. It is not meant to be a chopping block, so a damp cloth underneath stops it moving.
Use one side for each job. Because both sides work, you can keep one side for onions and garlic and the other for fruit, then switch sides rather than washing between tasks.
Knife marks are normal. Any board that is kind to knives will show cut marks over time. They are cosmetic and do not affect how the board performs.
