Full Description
What it is
The Cilio Goliath is a heavy-duty granite mortar and pestle designed for grinding, crushing and mixing ingredients. Its substantial bowl provides plenty of working space for spices, herbs, garlic, nuts and other ingredients.
Why it's better
The mortar is made from solid natural granite with a naturally rough interior that provides friction against ingredients, helping to crush and grind them effectively. The heavy construction also helps keep the mortar stable on the work surface during use. Cilio describes its granite mortars as resistant to abrasion and acids, making them suitable for a wide range of culinary ingredients.
Key customer benefits
The substantial granite construction provides stability during grinding, while the textured interior helps break down ingredients efficiently. Its generous size allows larger quantities to be processed without repeatedly emptying the bowl. The included granite pestle provides the leverage needed for crushing spices, herbs and nuts.
Typical uses
Ideal for grinding dry spices, crushing herbs and garlic, preparing pesto, making spice blends, crushing nuts and preparing pastes, marinades and other fresh seasoning mixtures.
