I like the heaviness of this mortar and pestle. I use it a lot. I am using it for smashing garlic, grinding cumin and other spices and herbs. I am learning other uses for this too. It is a good size. It does need to be dried after washing and this is not a problem for me. I highly recommend this.. Cary. CT. Thu Jan 08 2026
