Stainless Steel Mortar and Pestle -Gorgeous!

It’s beautiful, it’s useful, and it’s stainless steel.

 I use my mortar and pestle a lot in the kitchen. Mine is made of oak, hand styled by a wood artist in the state of Washington. This steel mortar and pestle will go great right next to it.

 One of the things that I use my mortar and pestle for the most during winter is fresh homemade chai masala. 

 2 1/2 cups water

1 teaspoon cardamom

3 whole black peppercorns

2 slices fresh ginger, peeled

1 cinnamon stick

2 cloves

2/3 cup milk

4 teaspoons sugar

3 teaspoons loose black tea (or tea bags) .

I slightly crush the peppercorns and cardamon, and cloves in my mortar and pestle before adding to the water. This is a delightful tea the whole family loves. Get a mortar and pestle today and start enjoying freshly crushed spices.
