we've been using mortars and pestles for centuries. they've been uncovered in archaeological digs over 30,000 years ago, back in the paleolithic age. we've been grinding up parts of our food for ages, it seems. and every kitchen needs a friendly mortar and pestle.
this bamboo mortar and pestle is lightweight, perfect for a quick herb smash or garlic cloves. a handy assistant for salads, and appetisers. not recommended for grinding—a stone mortar and pestle would be more handy!
