Hamam Dasta Brass No.2

A brass mortar and pestle, size No.2. Heavy enough that it does the work for you, and the right tool for cracking whole spices, crushing garlic and pounding ginger. Stone and metal crush rather than cut, which is why a pounded masala tastes different from a blended one.Wash and dry after every use. Brass darkens with age; that is patina, not damage.
