Question 1

Is it dishwasher safe?

Accepted Answer

A teak bowl is not recommended for the dishwasher, as high temperatures and prolonged moisture can stress the wood structure and cause cracks over time. Wash it by hand with lukewarm water and a mild detergent, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. From time to time, treating the surface with a food-safe oil (such as linseed or mineral oil) keeps it lustrous and well-nourished for years.

Question 2

What can I serve in it?

Accepted Answer

The bowl works equally well for cold and warm dishes: fruit and vegetable salads, bread, nuts, cocktail snacks, or a generous portion of pasta. The 30 × 23 × 10 cm size is ideal for serving 4-6 people. Avoid prolonged contact with very acidic or strongly liquid dishes — soup, for instance, is better suited to a glazed vessel than to an untreated teak bowl.

Question 3

How does it keep its shine over time?

Accepted Answer

Teak's natural oil content protects the surface for a long time on its own, but treating the bowl once or twice a year with a food-safe oil (linseed, mineral oil, or an oil specifically recommended for teak) revives the colour. This prevents small cracks caused by dryness and gives the wood a deep, living tone — characteristic of well-used pieces.
