Priority Chef Granite Mortar and Pestle Set, 2-Cup White Bowl with 6.5" Pestle — Heavy-Duty Non-Slip

The Priority Chef heavy-duty mortar and pestle is a 100% natural granite set with a 2-cup (6.3") bowl and a solid 6.5" pestle built for crushing, grinding, and mashing fresh ingredients.

If you want a reliable, long-lasting tool to make guacamole, pesto, salsa, spice blends or to grind nuts and seeds, this granite molcajete offers kitchen-grade heft and a textured interior that releases flavors efficiently. The set weighs roughly 7 pounds, giving it the stability needed for vigorous pounding while the included non-slip pads protect your countertops. Its white granite finish brings a classic stone look that also works well on display.

How much fits in the bowl and what size is the pestle?

The mortar holds about two cups and measures 6.3 inches across with a depth that accommodates larger batches for 1–2 servings. The pestle is 6.5 inches long, providing solid leverage for grinding and mashing without hand strain.

• 6.3" diameter bowl with approximately 2-cup capacity
• 6.5" pestle for strong, controlled pounding
• About 7 lbs total weight for stability during use

What types of foods and tasks is this mortar best for?

This granite set handles a wide range of kitchen tasks: smash avocados for guacamole, bruise herbs for sauces, grind whole spices, or crush nuts for pesto. The rough interior surface helps break down fibers and release essential oils, so you get more aroma and flavor than you would with a blender for many recipes.

• Guacamole, salsa and fresh sauces
• Grinding spices, seeds and nuts
• Mashing garlic, herbs and chimichurri

How do I care for and protect my counters with this heavy stone?

Because the mortar is heavy, it can scratch delicate surfaces if set directly on them. The set ships with two non-slip countertop protectors to prevent scuffs and keep the bowl secure during use. Clean by hand washing and rinsing; avoid harsh detergents or dishwashers to preserve the stone’s finish.

• Includes two non-slip pads to protect counters
• Hand wash with warm water; dry thoroughly
• Season briefly before first use if desired for best results

Will this set work for everyday use and display?

Yes—its durable granite construction is designed for frequent kitchen use and the white stone adds an attractive, rustic accent when left on a countertop. It’s heavy enough for serious grinding yet elegant enough to give as a practical, thoughtful gift to home cooks and food lovers.

• Sturdy enough for regular meal prep
• Attractive white granite for countertop display
• Makes a useful gift for cooking enthusiasts

Who this is for: Home cooks who prefer hands-on preparation and want a dependable, heavy-duty mortar and pestle for small batches of sauces, spice grinding and herb crushing. It’s ideal for anyone who values durable kitchen tools with a classic stone look—especially those making fresh guacamole, pesto, salsa or spice mixes by hand.
