Hand Carved Mexican Molcajete - Guacamole Mortar and Pestle and Salsa Maker - Make Countless Authentic, Flavorful and Mouthwatering Dishes - 8.5 Inch

was a very nice piece, but it arrived broken in a fragile handle with care box.:(

LOVE IT! Got it quickly and it was exactly as described. Came with great instructions on how to prepare it, cure it, and care for it. Didn't take long to do the preparation and it's curing as I write this. It created a paste quickly with little effort on my part. I just love it. It's heavy though, so be prepared for that. Love how it's hand carved. Really, it's quite nice. Am thinking of getting them for Christmas presents. I've added photos. Photo one show's me preparing the molcajete by grinding rice and water. The second photo shows the second time I do this and what it looks like at the beginning of the preparation. I only had to do this prep two times as my rice and water stayed white the second time around. All in all the prep took about a half hour. The third picture shows the pico de gallo I made in the bowl. The fourth one shows the ingredients for the "curing" of the molcajete and the last one shows the paste that was made from those ingredients. Which took no time at all by the way, I love how quickly and easily I can make a paste out of garlic and herbs. The directions say to leave the curing ingredients in it overnight, so that's what I'm doing. All in all I'm extremely happy with my purchase and would absolutely recommend it.

Description of the item says it comes with instructions for seasoning and cleaning. Mine didn't. Asked seller for instructions but they never responded

Learned about using one of these in Mexico while at a cooking school and couldn't wait to get back to get one to use at home. Perfect. Just like the one we used during class.

Received as a gift! Nice but received broken. I was also missing the instructions on how to cure it which other buyers said was received with theirs? Notified giver so it could be returned and hopefully I will receive an intact one this time!

This is great! Very authentic and larger than it looks. We love it! Shipping was fast and it was well packed.

Love this! It's beautiful. - I just need to get better at using it!

Just what I wanted. Would like one twice as large. I have seen them but can not find one.
