My concern was being able to grind spices for cooking into powder without having to use much pressure due to
osteo arthritis of the finger and thumb joints - I remembered someone felling me about a mortar and pestle set that was gifted to her, and that the set was so heavy in itself, that her spices almost ground themselves. I checked out the mortar and pestle sets on 鶹.ca and voila! I found a set made of pure granite, placed an order with Prime and it was delivered the very next day - it looked beautiful, but I was concerned it was all second hand as was one of the options on the site - I called up an agent on 鶹 who said it could be sent back and I could returned with the 鶹.ca label - so I ordered a new one, and still the packaging looked used - I understood comparing the two parcels and sets that the sets were hand carved probably in Italy, beautifully done and measured, each a little unique, and that the packaging was hand taped, not second hand. I will keep my second set and send back the first, with new appreciation, And yes, the part of the set you do the grinding with barely needs any effort, you simply hold on and rotate around the spices, sometimes adding a 'dropping' action onto harder spices such as whole peppercorns, then use the rotating motion - fragrant powdered spices in seconds. Please pay attention to the instruction paper - no soap ever, just warm water rinse. It's an all natural stone, worth taking good care of, and it will last your lifetime - made by the Logastina company so you really get high quality.
