Steps to Clean Dessert Wine Stains from Cutting Boards:

- Leave the paste on for about 10 minutes.
- Use a scrub brush to gently remove paste and any remaining stain.
- Rinse well with warm water.
- Dry the cutting board with a clean paper towel or let it air dry.
Additional Tips
- If the stain remains after following the above steps, use a vinegar and water solution to pre-treat the affected area.
