“Loved receiving my marble mortar with wooden pestle, after having learnt how to make pesto in Monterosso, Italy.
My “teacher” stressed that I must use a wooden pestle so the basil wasn’t damaged .
My first attempt to make the pesto worked really well so I sent photos of my purchased mortar and pestle and also of my pesto back to Italy to prove I had followed the recipe properly.
Although the mortar is heavy, it is easy to hold, use and clean.”
“My order arrived very quickly and it was very well packaged. This mortar and pestle is top quality and will last more than a lifetime. It's the perefct size - not too big and not too small. Looking forward to making some awesome sauces and pesto.”
