How to use a mortar and pestle
A mortar and pestle is an essential kitchen tool that can be used to grind and crush spices, herbs, and other ingredients. To use a mortar and pestle, start by adding your ingredients to the mortar. Use the pestle to grind and crush the ingredients, using a circular motion and applying pressure as needed. For best results, start with larger pieces and gradually work your way down to smaller pieces. When you're finished, use a brush or cloth to clean the mortar and pestle, being careful not to use soap or other harsh cleaners that could damage the material.
