Molcajete

  • Among the world's oldest culinary tools, volcanic rock mortars & pestles like these have been used by great cooks for thousands of years. Our molcajete (mortar) & tejolete (pestle) are hand carved from a single piece of basalt rock, so every piece is unique. In addition to being a great prep tool, the molcajete makes an impressive serving dish for guacamole & other party favourites.

    • Perfect for crushing whole spices & making spice blends.
    • Ideal for blending & serving guacamole – or for making pesto & other rustic sauces.
    • Line with lettuce leaves to use as an all-purpose serving bowl.
    • Rough interior texture of mortar helps crush & grind ingredients.
    • Heavy pestle does the work for you, ensuring efficient grinding, blending & mixing.
