About this piece
Soapstone Mortar & Pestle
Before mixers arrived, South Indian kitchens relied on stone to crush and grind, and a soapstone mortar and pestle keeps that habit alive for small jobs. It is ideal for pounding ginger and garlic, crushing pepper and jeera for rasam, or making a coarse chutney for one meal. Because soapstone does not react with sour ingredients, it is also handy for tamarind and lemon-based pastes.
Each size, whether Small, Medium or Big, has its place: a small one sits on the counter for daily spices, while the bigger ones suit families who still prefer hand-pounded chutneys and masalas. Wash it with a little soap, dry it fully, and it stays ready for daily use. You will find it beside our kalchattis and urlis in Sullurupeta, or you can ask about it on WhatsApp.
Highlights
- Soapstone mortar and pestle for spices, chutneys and pastes
- Does not react with tamarind, lemon or other sour ingredients
- Small, Medium and Big sizes
Care & use
- Before first use, grind a handful of raw rice a few times to clear loose stone particles.
- Wash with mild soap, rinse and dry fully; do not leave it soaking in water.
- Avoid dropping it or knocking it on granite counters, since soapstone is soft and can chip.

Questions
Before you buy
Still unsure about a size or finish? Ask us on WhatsApp — a photo of your stove or shelf helps.
Can I pound tamarind or lemon-based pastes in a soapstone mortar?
Yes. Soapstone does not react with sour ingredients, so tamarind, lemon and tomato pastes are fine. Rinse it after use so strong flavours and colours do not linger, and dry it fully before storing.
Does a soapstone mortar and pestle need seasoning?
It does not need full seasoning like a cooking pot, but it helps to prepare it once. Grind a handful of raw rice a few times, rinse, and repeat until the rice stays clean; this clears loose stone particles before you crush spices.
