Quickly and efficiently crush large-leaf herbs and spices so you can spend more time enjoying the full-flavored foods you prepare. The handsome high-gloss solid porcelain Curtis Stone 'Bump and Grind' mortar and pestle grinds and compresses fresh spices, herbs, garlic and more into your favorite seasoned dry rubs, pastes and wet marinades. The mortar features an abrasive-surface bottom and lower sides that deliver increased friction during spice grinding. Sleek boat-shaped mortar includes higher sides so ingredients don't spill out. The tapered porcelain pestle is easy-to-hold and just heavy enough to perfect the time-honored hand grinding technique that extracts rich flavors by crushing whole herbs and spices. A mess-free pouring spout conveniently transfers wet marinades to baste and tenderize meats and vegetables. Resistant to stain and odor absorption, the hard-wearing porcelain is ideal for grinding nuts for baking and mashing avocadoes for guacamole, too. Crisp white mortar and pestle add a stylish flair to countertops between uses. Dishwasher-safe.
