Garnish: Chopping and Serving Boards

For carving duck, dicing vegetables or serving up your latest Charcutepalooza challenge, you need a good chopping board. Choosing the right one is key -- there are some made to withstand a karate chop (or cleaver,) some better suited to Baroque assemblages of cheese. Either way, you don’t have to sacrifice form for function with these warm, burnished pieces.
