## Overview

Its durable, non-porous porcelain construction ensures pure flavors without absorption, while its dishwasher-safe design offers easy cleanup. Ideal for millennials who value artisanal cooking and kitchen efficiency, this tool transforms everyday ingredients into fresh, aromatic blends and remedies.

## Description

HIC’s Flying Saucer Mortar and Pestle Grinder is the perfect tool to grind spices, herbs, nuts, and more, into a fine paste or powder. Make aromatic dry rubs, curry pastes, pestos, homeopathic remedies, pulverize harder-to-swallow pills, and so much more. Its shallow capacity is perfect for grinding small portions during food preparation. Simply place your item into the bowl-like mortar. Hold the pestle by the handle and, using a firm pressure, make a circular motion to grind your item into a paste or powder. Harder items, like peppercorns, may need the surface cracked before it can be ground. With a firm but gentle pressure, tap the item with the pestle, then grind into the desired consistency. Pestle and mortar are both made from solid, fine-quality porcelain. Dishwasher safe.

Review: Difficult to be smaller. - I didn't realise how small it was. Saw one on a Nigel Slater programme, liked the look and thought, 'Yes, I'll have one'. Placed the order, thinking I would get something similar for the price. How disappointing. Might be able to crush a couple of peppercorns.
Review: I bought two of these mushroom top grinders and this one is absolutely PERFECT for small batches.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it flat on the bottom ?**
A: yes it is flat on the bottom

**Q: how does it do on garlic?**
A: I have never used mine for wet items. On dried garlic it would make powdered, but it is porous on the inside so it would have to be washed well after use to avoid a forever smell....

**Q: Do you grind in a circular motion or spin in a circular motion..?**
A: Hi!
My name is Jessica, an employee at HIC Harold Import Co. Thank you for inquiring about the HIC Flying Saucer Mortar and Pestle, Porcelain, Cobalt! In regards to your question, simply place your item into the bowl-like mortar. Hold the pestle by
the handle and, using a firm pressure, make a circular motion to grind your item into a paste or powder. Harder items, like peppercorns, may need the surface cracked before it can be ground. With a firm but gentle pressure, tap the item with the pestle, then grind into the desired consistency. Please feel free to contact me at jpetrecca@haroldimport.com with any other questions or concerns about this product. Hope this was helpful!

**Q: What is the volume? I am looking to grind salt to a fine powder**
A: I can grind peppercorns & pink salt into a fine powder! This saucer can grind all types of spices to a fine consistency. Tiny enough to git in a drawer, strong enough to grind spices with no effort!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by L***A on 5 January 2023*

Lo compré pensando en hacer molidos finos de especias y definitivamente no funciona. Se mancha y no se siente muy resiste. Pero eso un bonito detalle para tener en la mesa y disponer de pimienta quebrada o sal de mar más fina.
