Cool Stuff
This Mexican version of a mortar and pestle is perfect for making and serving a savory salsa or guacamole or grinding up fresh herbs. And because it’s made from natural volcanic lava rock that extracts essential oils from ingredients, it seasons or imparts more flavor each time it is used.
