The mortar and pestle is one of the oldest kitchen tools around.  There is evidence of them in some of Ancient Egypt’s oldest medical texts dating from 1550 B.C.E.  Thousands of years before modern kitchens had the ease and strength of a food processor, nearly every civilization on the planet was using some form of the mortar and pestle.

With the gourmet cooking movement the mortar has made a comeback, since there is still no quicker way to improve the taste of every meal you make than by employing this gorgeous ceramic set for just a few minutes.  Take any spice or herb and use the pestle to get all the flavor you need out of them!

This particular set got our attention because of the stunning glazed finishes on both the mortar and pestle.  The finishes give the ceramic as much flavor as you’ll get out of it when you use it!
