Mortar: 6 " dia. x 4.5 "H. Pestle: 2" dia. x 3.5"L From the hand carving process by artisans in the mountains, to making salsas and guacamole at home, we strive to give the best & unique products to our clients. Our authentic Mexican mortar and pestle is hand carved out of natural dark volcanic stone so it's just the right shape and texture to grind up spices for curries and homemade spice mixtures, mash ginger and garlic, and grind chilies for sauce, salsas, guacamole, and marinades. This droll molcajete is a must-have kitchen gadget for Mexican cuisine including salsa, molé sauces and serving as avocado smasher. Each piece is unique, and a beautiful display item for the kitchen, too. Hand-wash. Handmade in Mexico. Please note that Molcajetes need to be cured before use, specially for the first time. Curing is a process of preparing the molcajete for daily use. Just like seasoning a cast iron skillet, or softening up a new baseball glove, anyone who uses a molcajete has to spend time "breaking it in" before you use it for your favorite salsa recipe.
