Beautifu Mortar and Pestle June 24, 2010 MJS (North Carolina) This is a great size for grinding fresh or dried herbs. A bit pricey but worth the extra money.
Yep, it crushes peppercorns fin June 11, 2010 Michael Demmons (Atlanta, GA United States) Contrary to what a previous reviewer stated, crushing peppercorns was the first thing I did with this baby and it worked completely fine. I put a handful in, mixed it around, and BAM - perfectly crushed peppercorns. It showed up on time and intact. To to make a Panang Curry Paste!
My only complaint about this was the packaging. Seriously, do I really need it to be shipped in a box that could easily have accommodated four of these things?
Paid Too Much February 17, 2010 pppdx (Portland, Oregon) Although I really like the look and functionality of this marble mortar and pestle, I should have done better research. I found it online at Amazon for $20.58 and by accident ran in to it at my local New Season's grocery store for $16.50.
Doesn't sound like much, but when you consider buying locally to support my neighborhood (my preferred method) it wasn't all that good a deal.
Regardless, I own it and I'll enjoy it.
it is fine August 9, 2009 just joanie (spencer, ma USA) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
we got the mortar & pestal, the pestal was broken when we got it. i call the compant right away after opening package. the rep at the company, said he'd send one out right away. we got a new pestal 3 days later. too bad it came broken in the first place. had the pestal been wrapped up in something, it wouldn't have broken....
Nice beginning mortar and pestle January 21, 2009 A. Golsby (USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
You'll like this mortar and pestle if you just plan to use it in the kitchen or for making herbal remedies. Be sure not to use acidic things like vinegar or lemon juice in anything made out of marble, such as this, or it will cause it to erode.
The only complaints about this are that the felt pad on the bottom of the mortar will come off after a few washings. Also, don't use this with anything too hard -- it won't damage the mortar or pestle, but things like peppercorns aren't actually going to get crushed. They'll just pop out of the mortar when you try and smash them.
Over time, the smooth grey marble at the bottom of the pestle and on the grinding surface of the mortar will wear away and look whitish. That's to be expected, and it will not mess up your ability to grind things in it. In fact, it will probably grind things better at that point.
Final Verdict: A great value for $15-20. I would recommend this to a friend.
