Granite Mortar And Pestle Set, 1.5 Cup

A heavy granite mortar and pestle for pesto, salsa and whole spices, with two pads to protect the counter.

What you're getting

  • Solid natural granite, about 7 pounds for the set, so it stays put while you grind
  • The bowl is 5.5 inches across and 2.2 inches deep and holds about 1.5 cups
  • A 6.2 inch pestle with enough weight to crush garlic, herbs, nuts and whole spices
  • Two non-slip pads come in the box to keep the stone off bare countertop
  • Sized for one or two servings of guacamole or pesto in a single batch

Why we picked it

A food processor chops, but a mortar crushes, and pesto and spice rubs taste different for it. This one is heavy enough to leave out on the counter and big enough for a real batch, and the pads mean it can live there without scratching anything.
