This wooden dough bowl is very versatile. You can use it to knead dough for making delicious breads and pastries. It also works great as a fruit bowl on your dining table or as a decorative item to add a rustic touch to your home. When using it for food - related tasks, make sure to clean it thoroughly after each use. Wash it with mild dish soap and warm water, then dry it completely. To keep it in good condition, you can apply a food - safe wood oil every few months. Avoid soaking the bowl in water for a long time as it may cause the wood to warp. Also, don't put it in the dishwasher as the high - pressure water and harsh detergents can damage the wood.
