Traditional cooking utensils created by Mexican artisans. This beautiful set includes:

Mexican bean pot or olla. It is made of red clay, which gives it such a great, rustic look. The pot is hand painted with abstract shapes and designs in earthy colors - brown, cream, green. It has tiny handles on each side. The entire piece is glazed.

Steel tortilla press. The traditional and durable design allows for perfectly pressed homemade tortillas, with just the right thickness and round shape. The tortilla press is an essential tool in any Mexican kitchen. Tortillas have been used for many centuries, particularly in Mexico and more recently in the United States. The tortilla is consumed all year round, and are most commonly prepared with meat to make dishes such as tacos, burritos, and enchiladas. Easy to use - just insert your dough or 'masa' and with one press, a fresh tortilla. Impress your guests with homemade tortillas at your next dinner party!

Steel Comal. This griddle is imported from Mexico. It is great for toasting freshly pressed tortillas and roasting chillies & other vegetables. It can be used on the stovetop (both gas and electric) or direct flames.

Tortilla warmer. Handmade from palm and painted in bright colors. Can also be used to serve chips and other foods.

Molcajete & tejolete. Among the world's oldest culinary tools, mortars and pestles like these have been used by great cooks for thousands of years. In addition to being a great prep tool, the molcajete makes an impressive serving dish for guacamole and other party favorites. It is perfect for crushing whole spices and making spice blends and ideal for blending and serving guacamole-or for making pesto and other rustic sauces. It can also be lined with lettuce leaves to use as an all-purpose serving bowl.
The rough interior texture of mortar helps crush and grind ingredients while the heavy pestle does the work for you, ensuring efficient grinding, blending and mixing.

Steel citrus juicer. Squeeze some lemon or lime into your fresh guacamole or season dishes. The shape allows you to get the most juice out of each citrus fruit.
