A mortar and pestle is a kitchen device used since ancient times to prepare ingredients or substances by crushing and grinding them into a fine paste or powder. The mortar is a bowl, typically made of hard wood, metal, ceramic, or hard stone such as granite. The pestle is a heavy and blunt club-shaped object, the end of which is used for crushing and grinding. A stone mortar and pestle often provide a great deal of durability and toughness, making them ideal for grinding hard spices to a fine powder or for creating pastes. The heft and weight of the stone also contribute to the crushing and grinding efficiency, allowing the user to exert less effort for a more thorough result. The rough texture of the stone surface leads to an effective grinding action, allowing the user to achieve the desired consistency of the substance being processed. Stone mortars and pestles are often preferred for their longevity and the fact that they do not retain flavors, so they can be used for multiple ingredients without cross-contamination.
