Welcome to the ultimate guide on removing food odor from wooden utensils. Say goodbye to unpleasant smells and hello to fresh, clean utensils!

First, gather your materials. You will need white vinegar, baking soda, dish soap, and hot water. These common household items will do the trick.

Start by filling a large bowl with hot water and adding a few drops of dish soap. Submerge your wooden utensils and let them soak for 10-15 minutes.

Next, create a paste by mixing equal parts baking soda and water. Apply the paste to any stubborn odors or stains on your utensils and let it sit for 5-10 minutes.

After the paste has had time to work its magic, use a scrub brush or sponge to gently scrub the utensils. Rinse with hot water and dry thoroughly.

For extra stubborn odors, try using white vinegar. Fill a spray bottle with equal parts water and vinegar and spritz your utensils. Let them sit for a few minutes before rinsing and drying.

If the odor persists, try soaking your utensils in a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar for 30 minutes to an hour. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

To prevent future odors, make sure to thoroughly dry your wooden utensils after each use. Moisture can lead to bacteria growth and unpleasant smells.

Another tip is to rub a small amount of mineral oil onto your utensils after washing and drying. This will help seal the wood and prevent odors from seeping in.

Congratulations, you have successfully removed food odor from your wooden utensils! Now you can enjoy cooking and eating without any unpleasant smells lingering on your utensils. Happy cooking!
