Reduce plastic waste :: PlasticLess.com

I’m not a big fan of modern food processors. That might stem from the fact that I have usually been in charge of cleaning the things after someone with actual culinary skills and/or ambitions had the pleasure of using the ‘time-saving’ appliances.

This mortar and pestle is not an all purpose machine, but I love the name of its only purpose… PULVERIZE

If you decide that you need one, look for unfinished wood. Wood from old grapevines is sometimes used to make small sets for handling salt and pepper at the table. Since wood is highly absorbent, you should limit the use of a mortar and pestle to a range of spices and foods that will not cross contaminate each other in an unpleasant or unhealthy way. We use ours for cloves, pepper and other strong warm spices.
