Q: What’s best way to season it?

submitted by DC - 4 years ago
  • A: When you first get your set, you might notice some loose grit particles. To prevent these from ending up in your food, you can place a small handful of white rice in the mortar, add a tablespoon of water, and grind the mixture into a paste. Work the rice paste around every inner surface of the mortar. Rinse and repeat a few times until there is no longer any loose debris.

Q: I noticed someone said it should not be washed with soap, why?

submitted by TR74 - 4 years ago
