8-Inch Mortar & Pedestal Set This 8-inch Granite Molcajete Stone Grinder is perfect for any grinding and mashing kitchen needs.

Traditional Style Molcajete Mortar & Pestle Set A molcajete is a Mexican version of the classic mortar and pestle.
These versatile stone grinding tools are perfect kitchen accessories and can be used to grind, pulverize, and mash ingredients needed for cooking.
The crushing action releases aromas of herbs and spices for the most delicious flavors, and unlike electric food processors, the aromas don’t burn off.
Complex oils and flavors are further released by the manually grinding or mashing that can’t be achieved by chopping with a knife alone.
Versatile for Many Recipes & Cuisines Molcajetes aren’t just limited to salsa and guacamole- they can be used to prepare all kinds of delicious food including pesto, mashing anchovies and garlic for traditional Caesar Dressing, herb-based sauces such as Chimichurri, grinding your own spice blends, pulverizing nuts and seeds, mashing garlic for aioli, curry pastes, hummus, and crushing berries for sauces or cocktails.
Molcajetes are a wonderful tool with many uses! Doubles as a Serving Dish Traditional molcajetes are also used as a serving dish.
Heating the molcajete to several hundred degrees and then placing your food within it ensures that food stays hot for up to 30 minutes.
The attractive design looks great on the table for serving guacamole and salsa straight from the molcajete.
If you have never had a traditional molcajete in your kitchen, you”ve been missing out! Preseason to Elevate Flavors Before first use, the molcajete may be pre-seasoned by using either a garlic method or a rice with rock salt method.
Other spices such as cumin or pepper can also be used in the pre-seasoning process.
Pre-seasoning will elevate the flavors every time you use it.
To clean, simply rinse with water and use a brush or cloth to remove any particles.
It is not recommended to use to soap or detergent when cleaning the molcajete.
