bacteria or allergens can easily be transmitted from one part of the kitchen to another or from one food to another via knives, hands, or surfaces such as chopping boards. to reduce the chance of this it is advised to use separate boards for different types of food such as raw meat, cooked meat, dairy and vegetables. many professional kitchens follow this standard colour-coding system:









































bullet::::- blue cutting boards: raw seafood.









































bullet::::- red cutting boards: raw red meat.









































bullet::::- green cutting boards: vegetables and fruits.

cutting board
a cutting or chopping board is a durable board on which to place material for cutting. the kitchen cutting board is commonly used in preparing food; other types exist for cutting raw materials such as leather or plastic. kitchen cutting boards are often made of wood or plastic and come in various widths and sizes. there are also cutting boards made of glass, steel, or marble, which are easier to clean than wooden or plastic ones such as nylon or corian, but tend to damage knives due to their hardness. rough cutting edges—such as serrated knives—abrade and damage a cutting surface more rapidly than do smooth cutting implements.
