CARE
Hand wash with soap and brush. Due to its natural finishes, stone may take on a darker color when exposed to oils or certain foods. For the wooden top simply wipe with a damp cloth.

Before using the product, it must be cured if it is going to be in contact with food. To cure, begin to grind raw rice with grain salt with the grinder of your molcajete over the entire concave area until they become powder, this will turn gray because it is mixing with the impurities of the stone. Remove the excess and add more rice and salt, repeating the operation until the powder comes out completely white. Wash your molcajete with water and a brush to remove dust and let it dry. Your molcajete is cured and ready to use.
