Marble Mortar and Pestle Set is to prepare ingredients or substances by grinding them into a fine paste or powder. It is made of natural marble stone through manual polished on its surface, and the unpolished interior for easy grinding. And its heavy-duty weight prevents it from slipping and sliding off the countertop. It can be a garlic press for grinding fresh ingredients, like cloves of garlic, herbs and spices, peppercorns or cinnamon, nuts, grains, and seeds, into a fine paste or powder. The stone spices grinder is not limited to just food but also usable for supplements and pills. Simply place an item into the Mortar bowl. Hold the pestle by the handle and, using a firm pressure, make a circular stirring-like motion to grind your item into a paste or powder. Harder items, like peppercorns, may need the surface cracked before they can be ground.
