What is the best material for a mortar and pestle?
1 Answer
The best material for a mortar and pestle is a solid stone, such as granite or marble. The enormous weight of these stone mortars and pestles will break down the materials, and they will be able to withstand years of pounding and grinding before needing to be replaced.
