There are so many fancy kitchen items out there—from blenders to spice grinders. But because these appliances have motors, the heat generated from them degrades and mutes the bright flavors of your spices. Instead of enjoying a flavorful paste, you get to miss out on the tasty goodness of your fresh herbs. Is there a kitchen tool that can extract more flavor than any spinning blade or vicious food processor? The Mortar and Pestle Set by ChefSofi lets you enjoy bold flavors every single time. MULTIPLE CULINARY USES There’s plenty you can create with this great set of kitchen tools. Spice up your Indian cooking by crushing cardamom seeds, create flavorful Asian recipes by smashing fresh peeled ginger, or intensify your Italian bread by turning fresh garlic cloves into a paste. Beyond grinding herbs and spices, you can also use your mortar and pestle to whip up amazing guacamole, curry paste, pesto, or chimichurri. PERFECT SHAPE & FORM The best mortars are those with a deep round shape that keeps your ingredients from jumping or spilling out. Our 6-inch mortar with 2-cup capacity is sizeable enough for mashing small quantities of herbs and spices. Its pestle is broad with a rounded base so ingredients do not pop out from under. The mortar has a stable base that comes with a non-skid felt base to keep the granite from marking your countertop. SATISFY THE PALATE Get the most flavor out of your spices with this simple ancient device. By pounding and crushing the fibers of your herbs, our mortar and pestle set effectively releases the full range of essential oils, flavors, and aroma they contain. The depth of flavor that emerges in the hand-grinding process is something you won’t find if you are prepping your ingredients using a blender, electric grinder, or food processor. CREATE FLAVORFUL PASTES & SAUCES WITH THE CHEFSOFI MORTAR AND PESTLE SET! EASY-TO-USE COOKING AID Nothing makes ingredients more dynamic than the good old hand grinding from your traditional mortar and pestle. Even if you already have a food processor, your kitchen is not complete without this set. To use, fill the mortar 1/3 full only to avoid spillage and making crushing difficult. Be sure to start with the hardest ingredients to grind. If you need to grind a large number of ingredients, do so in batches. SWEAT-FREE CLEANING & UPKEEP Made of minimal-porosity granite stone, our mortar and pestle do not have a high tendency to absorb flavors and odors, making the set very easy to clean after each use. To clean, simply bring out some uncooked white rice. Grind it into powder to remove unwanted flavors from sticking to your tools. Dust the powder, and you’re done. You can also wash it with water afterwards and leave it to air dry. Try to avoid soap as much as you can. A TIMELESS, FUNCTIONAL GIFT While ancient, our mortar and pestle are tools no modern kitchen should be without. With all the exciting things one can create with this amazing set, it makes a thoughtful gift for homemakers, chefs, foodies, and those who love to prepare their food with herbs and spices. It comes in two sizes, 8-inch (5-cup) unpolished heavy granite and 6-inch (2-cup) set available in unpolished and black polished heavy granite. Review: The perfect mortar and pestle! - This is extremely sturdy and easy to use. I never take it off my counter. Both the mortar and the pestle are very heavy, which makes the mortar extremely stable — it does not move on the counter while using it. The weight of the pestle actually makes it easier to use because the weight carries the action, and the handle is quite comfortable in your hand, giving you a lot of flexibility in how you use it. The grinding surface is absolutely perfect. I use it almost daily to grind dry herbs to release their oils and flavor without your having to pick little sticks out of your food when you eat. I think it’s very important to follow the directions carefully for the initial conditioning of it and breaking it in so that you don’t have marble dust in what you are grinding. It’s a little time consuming but easy enough. My husband has a serious medical condition that requires an extremely strict salt-free diet. The hospital gave him dreadful food with absolutely no flavor. In order for him to enjoy his food, I add lots and lots of herbs and seasonings. For the past year, this mortar and pestle have made that possible and easy. I love this thing and am grateful for its ease of use. The most amazing thing is that it is beautiful in the bargain, absolutely gorgeous to look at on my counter. Review: Why did it take me so long to buy a mortar & pestle? - I’m honestly wondering why it took me so long to purchase a mortar and pestle! I am extremely happy with this one, and it has quickly become a staple in my kitchen. There are several reasons why I truly enjoy using it: 1. Sturdy and well-made This mortar and pestle is very heavy-duty—it literally feels like a small brick. That weight makes a huge difference when grinding because it stays in place and feels very stable. 2. Quality design and material It’s crafted from solid granite, which not only makes it durable but also gives it a clean, simple, and elegant look. I appreciate kitchen tools that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, and this definitely fits that. 3. Great size and capacity It’s large enough to hold a good amount of herbs and spices at once, which makes it practical for everyday cooking. I can also see this being perfect for small batches of things like guacamole or fresh spice blends. 4. Easy to maintain Cleaning and seasoning have been very simple so far. With proper care, I can tell this will last a long time, which makes it feel like a worthwhile investment. Overall: This is absolutely a purchase I would make again. It’s functional, durable, and a great addition to any kitchen. ## Features - A kitchen must-have: Mortar and pestle set (mortero de cocina - morter and pessel - molcajete or guacamole bowl and pestel) has been used for THOUSANDS of years as THE way to crush, grind and powder herbs and dry spices.

What is the inner diameter if not 6"?** A: Hello, Thank you very much for reaching out. The 6-inches is the outer diameter. The inner is 4.69-inches. Please do not hesitate to ask any further question. Yours, Brian ChefSofi **Q: Wheres it made? China? Usa?** A: Hello, Thank you for your question and interest in our mortar and pestle set. The design (i.e. dimensions, granite type, porosity level, density grade, roughness length, mortar thickness, mortar capacity etc.) is done in Germany. The actual granite raw material and manufacturing is carried out in the north mountains of Baoding city, Hebei province, China. Please do not hesitate to ask any further questions. Best, Brian **Q: What are the seasoning instructions again? I misplaced the paper.** A: Hello, Here they are: ***Before You Use Your New Mortar and Pestle the First Time*** Just like a new dutch oven, you need to clean and season your new mortar and pestle. This process will clean out the stone dust that is inherently left during the manufacturing process. - Wash it in clean water, without detergent and let it air dry. In fact, you should never wash it with soap unless you want your fantastic creations tainted with it. You should always begin using it when it’s dry, a wet mortar might gum up your dry ingredients. - Roughly grind a small handful of white rice. Discard and repeat until the rice grinds white. It will take several grinds. This can be somewhat cumbersome but is great practice and you should be a grinding pro by the time you’re done. If your mortar has a tendency to slip on the counter while you are learning, put a non-skid shelf liner under it. - Next add 4 cloves of garlic, mash and muddle. - Add 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the garlic. Grind it all together, enjoy the smells, and discard. - Wash it again in clean water, without soap, and air dry. Happy Grinding, Brian SofiGOODs **Q: Is the extra large unpolished gray mortar with 2 pestles also available in an extra large black polished version as shown in the pictures?** A: Hello, Thank you for your interest. The EXTRA LARGE Polished variation is at the moment out of stock. Will take 4-6 weeks to be available on Amazon. Happy Shopping!
