The simplest and best way to crush and grind herbs and spices. The ceramic is ttotally sealed so that it will not absorbs flavours or stain, and has a textured surface on the interior of the mortar and the base of the pestle for better crushing and grinding. The mortar has a pouring lip and a contoured bowl and base for ease of handling. Vitrified and non-porous, it will not crack, discolour or take on unwanted flavours.
A mortar and pestle crush and grind herbs, nuts, and spices in a very satisfying, down-to-earth way. Both pieces are made of heavy, durable porcelain that is vitrified and nonporous so as not to absorb odors, stain, or crack. The smooth white glaze covers all but the lower interior of the bowl and the lower third of the pestle, where a textured surface takes over and aids in the grinding process. Contoured for a sure grip, the bowl holds approximately one cup, measures 4-1/2 inches in diameter, and features a pouring lip. The mortar and pestle are dishwasher-safe, and the mortar may be used in the microwave, oven, and freezer if necessary. --Ann Bieri

BIA Cordon Bleu 8-Ounce Mortar and Pestle Set, White customer reviews:
my pepper grinder
I have not found a pepper grinder that I really like enough to buy. I purchased this mortar and pestle set right here on Amazon to get me by. So far it has exceeded my expectations. I do a couple dozen peppercorns at a time and put them in a shaker for later use. I can dial the grind to my liking which is mostly fine with a few course bits. Excellent aroma from my peppercorns. I love black pepper and buy both tellicherry and malabar. The distinct difference jumps right out at me when crushing them. I'm certain I'll find more uses for it. Some whole cumin seed just begging to be crushed for chili. I gifted a friend at work with one a month ago and she loves it. She likes her pepper very fine and this never leaves chunks for her. Just sort of crush the corns and big chunks then stir the pieces around and the rough end of the pestle grinds it perfect. I've stopped searching for a pepper grinder... this will do and the price was right. Rating: (M. Daniels, 2009-12-31) Product reviewed: BIA Cordon Bleu 8-Ounce Mortar and Pestle Set, White
What I wanted
I have a marble mortar and pestle, but the bottom is a little rough and stained so I wanted to find a new set. I mainly use my sets to grind dry herbs and seeds for herbal teas and this little set appeared to be what I wanted, so I ordered it. This was the perfect size for me and the porcelain is tougher than you'd think. I use it daily and it is holding up very well. Since it doesn't absorb odors, I'm going to try garlic in it. The vitreous porcelain bowl interior is smooth for about 1/2" down from the rim, then it has a slightly rough texture. It feels a bit like the finest emery paper and is on the bottom of the pestle too, creating opposing "gripping" surfaces. The bowl actually has a capacity greater than the 8 ounces stated in the description if you want to mix liquids directly in it. The pestle is asymmetrical as mentioned in another review, and I believe this is part of the design rather than poor workmanship. I tend to keep the bowed side down towards the mortar when grinding because it seems to direct the force better. Rating: (J.

Nice little mortar & pestle set
Nice set - it's small - so be sure you want a small one - but it's perfect for grinding up dried spices. Rating: (David Schenck, 2009-12-27) Product reviewed: BIA Cordon Bleu 8-Ounce Mortar and Pestle Set, White
