Why Buy a Marble Mortar and Pestle Set?
There are a number of different materials available for mortar and pestle sets but marble is one of the best. Let’s take a look at why it may be the best choice, or one of them, if you are going to be purchasing a mortar and pestle for home or as a gift. The fact is that we need considerable weight for the set to be used properly. If it is too light then it will simply make our work difficult. For grinding and pounding materials such as spices we need a good weight to make short work of the ingredients. If the pestle is too light it simply will have little effect as we try to make a decent powder or at least makes the spices suitable for cooking with. Marble will work amazingly well at making short work of even the hardest materials. It is relatively heavy so it can be used very easily to pound or grind anything that we wish to put through the mortar. This is especially true if we are to use the pestle to pound ingredients. If it is wood then there simply will nit be sufficient weight
