Ceremonial Tradition
Handcrafted Ceremonial Style Molcajete Mortar
The artisans recommend that the molcajete be 'cured' before the first use. To cure the molcajete, place some dried beans, corn or rice in the bowl and grind with the pestle until pulverized. Allow the pulverized grain to sit for 15 minutes. Once this has been done, the molcajete can be hand washed and allowed to dry. This step will ensure that any stone dust remaining from the carving process does not affect the food.
