Sycamore Mortar and Pestle

The American Sycamore, known as the Plane Tree in Europe, is a favorite ornamental in the US. Tall, atractive, with signature peeling gray and green bark, these trees provide a hard wood that is difficult to split, has attractive lacy flecked grain, and does not give off odors or taste, making it ideal for use in culinary applications.

Mortars and Pestles are enjoying a rising popularity, very useful for grinding and mashing fresh herbs to release the flavor. The smooth turned wood and ergonomic design is very comfortable and a pleasure to use. Along with a wood cutting board, wood mixing, salad and serving bowls, wood goblets, and cutting boards, it's a mark of a classy, fine kitchen.
