Why You Need a Garlic Olive Wood Mortar
🧄 100% Handmade for Garlic Lovers
This garlic olive wood mortar is shaped and sanded by hand. The bowl is deep enough to prevent splatter. The pestle is rounded to crush cloves completely. Every curve is made with garlic in mind.
🧄 Naturally Odour-Resistant
Olive wood contains natural oils. These oils repel bacteria and stop smells from soaking in. Your garlic olive wood mortar will never smell like yesterday’s dinner. Rinse it clean. It stays fresh.
🧄 No More Garlic Press Mess
Garlic presses are hard to clean. They waste half the clove. This mortar gives you full control. Crush once. Crush twice. You get every drop of flavour. No metal taste. No plastic parts. Just pure garlic.
🧄 Built for Daily Use
Olive wood is incredibly hard. It resists cracks and scratches. This garlic olive wood mortar will outlast any press or electric grinder. Use it every day. It will last decades.
What Makes Our Olive Wood Mortar Special?
The Right Size
Not too big. Not too small. The bowl is sized perfectly for 1 to 6 garlic cloves. You can also crush ginger, chillies, or small spices. But garlic is its true calling.
The Right Texture
The interior is smooth but not slippery. Garlic cloves grip the wood surface. You press down. They crush evenly. No flying pieces. No wasted time.
The Right Weight
Heavy enough to stay put. Light enough to handle easily. You hold the bowl with one hand. You grind with the other. Simple. Natural. Effective.
