Add a butcher block top to your island
Butcher block tops can be a great addition to any kitchen. It is very difficult
to damage a butcher block top. They are very useful in the preparation of foods.
Now, they are available for the top o kitchen islands and carts in a wide
variety of designs and styles. Traditionally, the design of a butcher block is a
large cube or rectangle of hard rock maple blocks fastened together to prevent
warping. The traditional design is still available, as are many more. Butcher
block tops are available in round, square and rectangular shapes. They are also
available in a variety of thickness and woods.
Butcher block tops are traditional but very functional. Butcher blocks have
found their place in a modern kitchen as a cutting board and an extra space for
preparing food. Butcher block tops can spare your counter from the wear and tear
that comes from food prep. They can also protect your good knives from damage as
well. Many butcher blocks have padding underneath them to prevent damage to your
work surface and to prevent the block from slipping while you are working with
it. In some kitchens, the block countertop is incorporated directly into the
design of the work and cooking area.
Most kitchen islands and carts are designed with blocks for top surfaces.
These designs often include storage shelves and drawers beneath, as well as
cooking surfaces and even sinks on the more expensive island and cart designs.
These designs make cooking and entertaining much easier. Because blocks are
porous surfaces, maintenance and care is very important, whether you use the
block as a portable work surface or as part of the kitchen cabinetry. To prevent
bacteria resulting from moisture and other factors, clean the exposed surfaces
with a bleach or vinegar solution regularly.
The butcher block is a great choice for a very traditional look and a functional
piece in your kitchen. Contemporary kitchen design allows for the cutting block
to be a complementary part of the design plan as well.
