Material Type:Granite Precautions: Please wash before first use to remove the granite powder on the surface. Gray granite looks great in any environment and is strong enough. The granite mortar and pestle does not crack and is non-porous, so it does not absorb any oil extracted from herbs and spices. It also makes cleaning easy. It follows the traditional pestle and mortar design and is loved by professional chefs. It is ideal for preparing jams, sauces and dipping sauces, and it is also ideal for extracting the maximum flavor from the ingredients to make the most of the cooking effect.

Not worth the money
Rather disappointed. It’s not easy to use the pastel. The ingredients get stuck inside the hard surface and it’s really difficult to completely clean it. Regret buying it

just what you need
this smashing piece of kit makes short work of a good few things shark is a good name for it, the only thing i would not use it on is to crush nuts very nasty oooo reason being the oils in the nuts my remain for a while and if some people are allergic to them it will be very nasty and no fun at all so please be careful on that score, great stuff though if you need one for cooking or any other thing buy a grandmas shark you wont go wrong and you wont regret it last a life time great stuff.

Good quality
Very heavy and substantial, will last a life time if looked after. Do remember to season it properly before use to get rid of excess loose particles and dust.

Sturdy and durable
Loved this mortar. Heavy, solid, decent size and good quality. I almost use it every day to crush garlic and chillies etc. for my cooking. Highly recommended.

Great value
Very pleased with this, I wanted a decent mortar and pestle but I was on a budget. This works great, in fact it's better than my old expensive one (broken, this was its replacement). You definitely do need to season it, there are loads of YouTube videos showing how to do it - I prefer the rice and salt paste method. It's time consuming but absolutely worth it, it's really important to season it properly before the first use. This was nice and easy to clean, and dried out nice and quick without any weird staining.

Good texture of the grinding surface.
The grinding area surface and pestle tip It is not as smooth as marble or porcelain and not as rugged as volcanic stone. So just perfect. Good for making guacamole and grinding fruit and spices.It is heavy (2.6 kg) though.

Works well... once the dust is washed off..
I wasn't sure how good this was going to be, it took ages to remove the rough dusty edges inside the mortar . lots of granite particles were being ground and ended up in the spice mix. After several clean water washes the granite sediment has gone. So it works really well. this is a really solid lump of granite and is big enough to mash a good volume of spices. having two Pestles is a great idea.. so after a shaky start i am happy with this item...
