Granite Mortar and Pestle Set - 5.5 inch, 2 Cup Capacity, with Silicone Garlic Peeler and Mat

The Modern Mortar and Pestle Set is a versatile kitchen tool designed for a variety of culinary tasks. To prepare the mortar and pestle for its first use, follow these simple steps:

1. Gently rinse the mortar and pestle with water, avoiding the use of soap, as it can affect the taste of the food you'll be grinding. Ensure that the set is thoroughly dried, as any residual moisture can cause the ground ingredients to turn into a paste.

2. Season the mortar by grinding white rice until it turns into a powder and discolors. Repeat this process until the rice remains white, which will help polish the granite and remove any excess dust.

3. Remove the rice and add garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper, then grind the mixture. Rinse the mortar and let it air dry. Your mortar and pestle are now ready for use.
