★ Mortar and pestle unpolished granite set - Handmade in solid unfinished Molcajete - Made for a lifetime.
- 👩🍳 👨🍳 A KITCHEN ESSENTIAL: Today, the mortar and pestle remains a crucial tool in culinary traditions around the world, and it deserves to be treated as an essential in every kitchen. Not just because it served our ancestors so well, but because it continues to do what no other item in the kitchen does: smashing fibers and cells apart to fundamentally transform their texture and release their full aroma and flavor. That's something a blade can't ever do as well.
- 👍 PERFECT SIZE: 6 inch diameter bowl is the perfect multipurpose size for any kitchen. The heft of the granite also gives an added stability to the base making it a lot easier to use. Plus, granite doesn't rust or noticeably stain. It's a permanent tool!
- 🏆 A STONE MORTAR: In most cases you're better off with a solid stone mortar. Stone such as granite is strong, dense, and unyielding, giving you a powerful surface against which to crush things; it's also not nearly as brittle as ceramic, meaning you can really drive some force into it without worrying that the material will crack or chip.
- 🥗 THE PERFECT MASHER: Use your mortor to pulverize nuts, seeds, ginger root and garlic and make homemade salad dressing, sauces and condiments, such as fresh mustard, quacamole, pesto, salsa, chutneys and more. Widely used in pharmacies and apothecaries, your molcajete set will help you powder pills, for optimal ingestion.
- ❤️ NO MESS & EASY TO CLEAN: Rinse the morter and pestle in water immediately after use. Wash the set in warm water and use an abrasive dish sponge to remove stuck-on food. Rinse the mortar and pestle thoroughly in warm water to remove soap residue. Dry the mortar and pestle with a clean cloth to prevent water stains from forming on the granite.
