A new look for the traditional mortar and pestle, this cleverly designed version includes a dual-purpose lid. Made of bamboo, the lid keeps the mortar dust-free during storage and stores the pestle in a grooved recess. Flipped over, the lid serves as a mini chopping board. The heavyweight and hard-wearing pestle and mortar are carved from natural granite, the perfect substance for crushing vegetables, grinding spices, pounding herbs and making pesto and salsa.
