This set is designed to be elegant and stylish, while making it easy and comfortable to grind ingredients. The grey granite looks great in any setting, while being robust enough for busy kitchens. And it follows the traditional pestle and mortar design that's a favourite of professional chefs. It's ideal for preparing curry pastes, pestos and dips, or simply for extracting maximum flavour from ingredients to bring out the best in your cooking. Textured Bowl and Comfort Pestle This pestle and mortar set is so easy to use. The mortar bowl has a textured interior, which makes it much easier to crush spices to bring out their delicious oils and flavours. Slightly wider than most mortar bowls, it's size means there's less chance of spills. It also includes a comfort-shaped pestle, which is designed to reduce the strain on your hands as you crush, mash and grind ingredients. Super-Strong Granite Design There's a reason granite tools are commonly used by professional chefs - they're incredibly strong and robust. This granite pestle and mortar won't crack, and it's non-porous so won't absorb any of the oils you extract from your herbs and spices. This makes it quick and easy to clean too. A Beautiful Gift With its elegant, rustic style, this mortar and pestle set looks lovely displayed in your kitchen. It's packaged in a beautiful gift box too, so it makes the perfect gift for any food lover!
