HiCoup KitchenwareNatural Unpolished Non Porous Granite Mortar and Pestle Set,6in Large

I have ALWAYS wanted one of these for things like homemade salsa, spinach dip, and guacamole. It's been on my wishlist for a while, and after the price recently dropped below $15... I knew I just had to have it! This thing is heavy, well-made, and now a beautiful new addition to our kitchen countertop. We're currently halfway through the initial seasoning/setup process - which consists of grinding up cups of dry white rice until its pulverized into powder... several times. The end goal is no blueish tint or visible rock dust in your white rice powder when finished, which would signify that you've smoothed out the inside well enough to avoid getting granite in your future food. Be forewarned! The process has taken us about 40 mins so far and it has been nothing short of a full arm workout for both my husband and I. We may be overdoing it a bit, but better safe than snaggletoothed. 😭Arm workout aside... both the mortar and pestle are beautiful! It has anti-slip felt padding on the bottom. It's a great size and weight - perfect for a family/party-sized amount of whatever you're mixing up. Very high quality. The price (currently $13 and change) is absolutely unbeatable. In my opinion, it's worth 5 times that amount.If you're seriously eyeing it, trust the overwhelmingly positive reviews here and add to cart! There are tons of recipes and herbal/medicinal experiments to discover. I also feel like it would be a nice gift. Comes in a professional looking box, well packaged. ❤️

Beautiful, effective, hefty, I absolutely adore this. It's amazingly built and the textures of the stone give it a very rustic feel. They also make the grinding inside easier. The pestle is perfectly smooth and easy to handle. I use this all the time. I am docking off a star for being easy to clean though it is not the manufacturer's fault and not anything to do with carelessness or being a poor product. Quite the contrary, it's because it is that it makes it a BIT difficult to clean. Because the inside is rougher, it can take a bit of time to rinse things out because whatever you're grinding might get stuck in the grooves and also since this is well-made and heavy, you need to be ABSOLUTELY CAREFUL carrying it so as to drop it.As long as you're not careless, it's totally fine. Absolutely beyond sturdy, couldn't have asked fo better.

Sehr gute schwere Qualität.

It’s heavy and I love it. Quality is good.

De très belle qualité. Très beau look. Pèse une tonne ! On ne l'utilise pas tous les jours certes mais très chouette produit.
