Product Info

When it comes to crushing whole seeds or spices for cooking, there are few things that beat the hands-on satisfaction of crushing them under the pestle. And since all sorts of wonders can be created there (pesto comes from the Latin 'pestare' which means 'to crush'), it's a kitchen essential.

  • White, porcelain pestle and mortar
  • Perfect for crushing whole seeds, spices, and peppercorns for cooking and for mixing up pestos and mixed herbs
  • Includes a pouring lip for ease of use

This is the most affordable, good quality and simple pestle and mortar set I have seen. It is perfect for my starter kitchen and I am loving getting enthusiastic about cooking with utensils that didn't cost all my savings.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

At the end of the month I just couldn't part with the amount for the fancier stone/marble products so opted for this little baby and was pleasantly surprised. It's sturdy and doesn't feel like it will break which I thought might be the case from the image. I was planning to have to replace it when I had the cash but honestly don't think that'll be necessary for a while...

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Just received my Maxwell and Williams mortar and pestle and made a Moroccan rub in it. Works perfectly and at this price it is a no brainer. Feels solid, does the trick.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

I was looking for a small, light pestle & mortar to prepare quick rubs or crush spices for everyday meals. This is the perfect product for smaller quantities and is not cumbersome to use like many of the other marble or stone options.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Works beautifully, although the roughened ends take some scrubbing to clean afterwards - but managed to grind coffee beans I ordered by mistake instead of ground coffee.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
