Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro Porcelain Mortar and Pestle Set
Customer Review: Spacesaver
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this model because I need to crush a lot of pills for my disabled daughter. I like it because I can easily carry it around in her backpack when we travel. The only problem I've ever had is that occasionally I've had the knobs break off but that's from dropping, not normal usage.
Description of Norpro Porcelain Mortar and Pestle Set
Nor Pro Porcelain Mortor & Pestle set. 4"x3" Indispensable for crushing herbs and spices to release their full flavors. Specially designed carved bowl shaped pestle maximizes efficiency.Sometimes the simplest way to grind food is also the best. Using a mortar and pestle pulverizes food, releasing all its tasty oils and aromas in the process. (The friction involved in the whirling blades of a food processor, on the other hand, burns through these flavor-making compounds.) A mortar and pestle is especially suited for crushing seeds, herbs, and spices--including garlic. Pesto made in this manner is truly heavenly and justifies the effort expended in its creation. Norpro?s uniquely-carved, bowl-shaped pestle is designed to cover a wide surface area, and uses efficient, rotary-style motion. It?s made of porcelain, ideal for a mortar and pestle as it won?t absorb food odors or stain. Measuring four by three inches, the Norpro mortar and pestle clean easily by hand, or in a dishwasher. --Mary Park
