Verve Culture Molcajete 토르티야 바스켓 포함

몰카헤테는 멕시코 요리사들이 사용해 온 수백 년 전통의 절구와 방망이입니다. 거친 표면은 전부 화산암으로 만들어져 채소와 향신료의 풍미 있는 오일을 갈아내는 데 이상적입니다. 주철처럼 몰카헤테 그릇은 오븐에 넣을 수 있고, 열을 한 시간 동안 유지하며, 시간이 지날수록 풍미를 흡수해 요리의 맛을 계속해서 높여줍니다. 살사, 과카몰리, 케소, 몰레 등에 완벽합니다. 약 7인치 지름.

Better with time

Nothing compares to the flavors that volcanic stone brings out of spices and vegetables. The more you use it, the more flavor and character you get. One day, you’ll be ready to pass it on to your grandkids. Its rough surface is made entirely of volcanic stone, ideal for grinding and releasing flavorful oils from vegetables and spices.

Better with friends

Our molcajete can make guac for one, but we found that everyone loves to gather around. Grab some chips, grab some friends, and you’ve got yourself a piece of kitchenware and awkward-situation-insurance. Each molcajete is packed in a tortilla basket made of handwoven palm leaves to serve in style. Each basket is unique in color and pattern. You can use the basket for corn chips, or tortillas.

Care & Curing

Just like cast iron, molcajetes need to be cured, or “broken in”. Small grains of the rock can loosen from the surface when it’s first used, giving your food a gritty texture. Curing helps smooth the surface.

Here’s how we recommend curing before first use:

1. Rinse the molcajete with water (or let soak in water overnight), then clean with a wire brush, or toothbrush, to get rid of surface debris and dust.
2. Place enough rice to make an even layer across the bottom of the molcajete.
3. Pour in about a tablespoon of water, then use the pestle to work the rice up and around the entire inner surface of the molcajete until the rice has formed a grey paste.
4. Rinse out the paste, and repeat the rice grinding until the resulting paste is no longer grey.
5. You can then repeat with garlic, onion, cumin seeds, rock salt, or cilantro to add a seasoned flavor before your first use.
