Cutting boards
— kitchen/dining boards can be divided into two main categories: cutting boards and serving boards. The first are kitchen utensils, on the surface of which it is possible to perform mechanical processing of various products. There are both universal cutting boards and highly specialized ones (for cutting fish, cutting vegetables, bread, etc.). In culinary practice, it is customary to colour-code cutting boards. Red — for meat products, blue — for fish and seafood, green — for greens and vegetables of the salad group, yellow — for heat-treated products, white — for working with flour products. Cutting boards can be made from wood, PVC, glass, and many other materials.
Serving boards are table accessories that are used as a stand for products and can play the role of dishes. For the most part, they are highly specialized: for serving sushi, pizza, vegetable and fruit slices, nuts, etc. Often, table boards do not have a flat work surface, but a recessed one, as in dishes.
