Grand Tradition Traditional Basalt Molcajete from Mexico (9 inch) Lisu Hill Tribe the gemstones may have inclusionsPrepare herbs, spices and sauces the way our ancestors did with handmade stone tools. Members of the Comonfort Group present this traditional footed molcajete or stone mortar, crafted by hand from volcanic basalt. The pestle, called a tejolote, is used to grind or crush the foodstuffs in the mortar. The molcajete can also be used as a unique serving dish for salsa or guacamole. The artisans recommend that the molcajete be 'cured' before the first use.
