- The mortar and pestle are ancient tools that no modern kitchen should be without.
- handy for everything from cracking peppercorns and crushing tender herbs to making pesto and guacamole.
- Crush vitamins for the kids, or for putting in smoothies.
- Mash roasted herbs and spices for delicate cuisines.
- Not too heavy. The mortar is only 1.7lb, yet sturdy enough with its silicone base to do the job.
