When I was little, I would perch by my Nana in the kitchen and help her prepare dinner--my favorite part was always grinding up ingredients, and if I had had the Orb Pestle and Mortar, it would have been even better. For some reason, this process made me feel like I was part of a past era and my imagination ran with it.
Yet the Orb Pestle and Mortar is definitely a more modern take on the traditional crushing and grinding method. Made out of porcelain, it offers two bowls to grind in, providing convenience and versatility.
