Recently took one home from S&R after years of hunting high and low for a decent one. Can’t wait to use it!

My husband (Thai) is looking for a deep mortar & pestle here. It’s for Thai curry paste & needs to be at least 6 inches deep, deeper would be better. We got one at St.James bazaar last year but it broke already. Does anyone know where I can have one made? Please text me 09177392367. Thanks!!

I use this for making my favorite thai recipe like papaya salad.

I’ve been looking for one dito sa US and finally decided to buy a marble grinder made in China. I was concerned about the rough finish of stone grinder baka kako may “lead”. I did not know I have to season it. Wanted to use it for making “galapong”. After reading this post, i’m now wanting a stone grinder, which was my original choice…uggghhh…i’ll just have two grinders. thanks for the post.

I have a thing for mortars and pestles…buy one whenever I can. My favorite one is raw granite from Chiang Mai. I use one for spices, one for making sauces, one for fishy things. A friend gave me one from Spain he used just for romesco and aioli. I’ve always wanted a molcajete..will check our local S&R!
