Description
A hardwearing and stain-proof porcelain mortar and pestle (ceramic that's been refined at fired at a higher temperature, increasing durability).
---DETAILS---
This laboratory-grade mortar and pestle from Milton Brook has a dense structural base and a long, comfortable beechwood handle for the easy grinding and crushing of herbs and spices. What makes it stand out is the non-porous finish, which prevents stains and odours. This results from being fired at a controlled temperature until the clay's microscopic pores are eliminated. The mortar (not pestle) is dishwasher-safe, but it's best to hand wash both parts with mild detergent.
---BENEFITS---
'An indispensable tool for grinding whole spices for curries and spice rubs, as well as "wet" spice pastes, dips and sauces. The beechwood handle reduces the weight of the pestle, and the pouring spout is a nice touch.'
