Large-leaf herbs are no match for the 18/8 stainless-steel Curtis Stone 'Bump and Grind' mortar and pestle. The kitchen prep set efficiently grinds and crushes fresh spices, herbs, garlic and more into your favorite dry rubs, pastes and wet marinades. With a high-gloss exterior, the stainless-steel mortal and pestle serves up homemade seasonings that bring out the full flavor in foods from barbequed meats to tangy pesto. The mortar's stainless-steel interior features an abrasive bottom and lower sides that deliver increased friction during spice grinding. The 'Bump and Grind' mortar core is cast-iron which adds heavier stability. A heat-resistant silicone marinade brush is built into the pestle's handle and removes with a simple twist.

Sleek boat-shaped mortar includes higher sides so ingredients don't spill out. The tapered 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 stainless-steel is ideal for grinding nuts for baking and mashing avocadoes for guacamole, too. Mortar and pestle add a stylish flair to countertops between uses. Dishwasher-safe.

"I've always loved what you can do with a mortar and pestle, whether it's an authentic pesto, an olive oil marinade or even a dry rub. Its uses are endless. Even though I love what a mortar and pestle can do, I honestly don't enjoy using them, as they are hard to pour from, often heavy, and take up too much space in my kitchen. So I thought I would solve this problem by designing my 'Bump and Grind.' It's an effective little number that's easy to pour from and the unique boat shape makes crushing herbs and spices easier. Don't just marinade it. Bump and Grind it!"
