This is a massive mortar and pestle set and an incredible value for its quality
5/5

The pharmacist who is very passionate about cooking had to purchase the hefty mortar and pestle to use on its own A pestle and mortar Over the years, I have compounded drugs with a mortar and pestle so many times that it has become a habit for me An arrowhead. A few pros For the quality of the product, the price is reasonable. *The weight is an indication of the number of ounces in the bag. Its texture is similar to a mortar and pestle Crushing, grinding, and blending will be faster when you use a pestle Using a pulverizer. I will weigh both my bodyweight and my height Your final result depends on your texture in addition to your speed in completing your product. * If you follow the seasoning instructions exactly, the set is a quick and simple process. Just water is all that's needed to clean up. There is no need for soap, unless you enjoy the taste of soap in your food. The weight of the bag is important as it ensures that it can withstand all the pressure that is applied during use as well as remain in place so you do not end up chasing it all over your counter. The cons are NOTES None The seasoning of your mortar and bricks has already been covered The manufacturer's instructions should be followed when using the pestle. In addition to being boring, seasoning requires a great deal of time. Take a look at these tips then. Using the same method as the manufacturer, add a handful of rice to the mortar and grind until it is white in color. It makes more sense to me that "white" means that you crush the rice into a powder before proceeding with the other steps of seasoning. It is hoped that this will speed up the process of producing rice powder. Take a good grip of the pestle and mash the rice into the curved part of the mortar where the side meets the bottom. It is simply a matter of crushing In order to work the rice, you will have to stir in a circle for hours. Using your hands, break each grain of rice into not quite equal pieces, then start to work it in circles while concentrating your power on one corner of the Although this is a lengthy message, my goal is to assist you in seasoning your mortar and pestle Put the pestle in the correct place & Ensures that you get the best results from your set for a long time. (I do not work for Amazon or the seller. I'm just a pharmacist like many others, always looking for ways.

It's hard not to love this
5/5

After the slurry erupted, I milled water and let the slurry help make a polish, followed the seasoning instructions, and repeated the process again the following morning. The set I am using has been on my desk for several months now. What about durability? It wouldn't be hard to bludgeon a raging bear to death with that Next, rinse off the dry rub for the ribs you were going to make, and then go back to it. Could you please explain the Wept the goddess, and her tears would easily break the extremities of a zombie A black belt 7-year-old, who is no good at Kung Fu, is infected. Yes, that's great, but this set isn't just there to help you survive a zombie attack. With this set, I've been able to grind herbs and spices so finely that it's amazing. A mortar and pestle set in its place is now causing my pepper grinder to shoot looks of hatred and jealousy in the form of black and green. My top shelf of the cabinet is where I keep this. It is not only great for the culinary masterpieces it helps you invent, but you can lift and lower it many times for good upper arm exercises. Is it good to never miss a day of arm workout? This mortar and pestle eliminates the need to grind! After you wash it with water and your fingernails, dry it off, get a quick workout in, and plan your next amazing dish, you're done. You will have to season for a very long time (both in your arms and in However, you put the work in and now you have an amazing mortar and pestle that will help you survive the zombie apocalypse or local bear rabies outbreak, if it ever happens.

This is a really good mortar
5/5

This is a great value for your money. I love the granite and the quality of the product. I tried grinding some rice and it turned out very well as you can see in the photo. For 16 dollars, I got it. I purchased it for 99 cents, making it the cheapest 2 cup mortar available at the time. My guess is that I am the first to review that. Buying without hesitation is the best decision. Although there are other expensive mortars, their purpose is to grind spices, and every stone does the same thing. This purchase has been a good experience for me. Be sure to get one before they are There is no guarantee the price will remain the same for a long time.

You can't go wrong with this one! This mortar and pestle is fantastic! On Amazon, there seemed to be an overwhelming selection of granite mortars and pestles, so I chose the Gorilla Grip Medium, based on reviews and pictures
5/5

It seemed sturdy and well made, and the reviews were much in agreement with my impression. The rest is history this thing is exactly what the professionals told me it was, does its job perfectly, and rinses cleanly after every use (after proper sanitization). Since having this thing, I have been amazed and am wondering how I ever lived without it. In the case that you're not sure about the size, the medium (6") is a suitable size for those cooking for 2 to 4 people It depends on appetites whether it will work for 3 or 4. The use of large quantities of spices and aromatics is no problem, but what I am talking about is the use of these ingredients in guacamole and It was easy to season the rice -- my second batch of rice came out white, but I did a third round, filling the mortar cup about 3/4 full of rice and concentrating on If you are seasoning the bottom and overall lower bowl, it is easy to grind away, but that is a little trickier with the sides. My seasoning was completed by mashing two batches of garlic, ginger, cumin seeds, and coriander seeds into a paste, then spreading it evenly throughout the interior of the mortar and all over the pestle, and letting it sit Although a little excessive? Yes, but it gave me a chance to utilize and bond with my awesome new kitchen ally, and now the unpolished granite is easier than ever to rinse clean with no odor or residue left behind. The mortar and pestle I have are perfect!.

You're so good at I am so excited! Oh my gosh, I'm over the moon! I am amazed at how big this thing is! This is great! I really like Here I am after I have cleaned and seasoned it
5/5

I wanted to wait until I had finished cleaning and spicing it before I left a review. I had no problems, the packing was excellent. There were no cracks or broken parts. There were no problems with washing the stone and it dried quickly. Obviously, the seasoning process will take a while so you'll have to be patient I was never concerned with the texture or quality of the There are a few witches out there who are extremely pleased with this find.

There is already damage to this handle! Yesterday, I just got it, and I am in the process of repairing it! If you could replace it, how would I go about doing it?

Good quality and worth the price
5/5

I use it for flax seeds and spices, and it has worked well for me so far. In addition to making guacamole, I can also store it in the refrigerator. After opening the product for the first time, the texture of the bowl didn't appeal to me greatly however, after cleaning it and seasoning the inside as instructed, I have completely forgotten about it. The handle is easy to hold and for the price, it is a great buy! Without a doubt, I would recommend it.
