Tejolote - Piedra de Molcajete

Molcajete Pestle (Mano de Molcajete)
Approx. 4"–5" Length

Need a replacement Tejolote? Your molcajete doesn’t have to sit unused just because the pestle is missing. This authentic stone tejolote is the perfect replacement to restore your molcajete and keep your traditional cooking alive.

Hand-carved from natural volcanic rock, each tejolote is durable, heavy, and designed to grind ingredients efficiently into rich, textured salsas and pastes

What Is a Tejolote?

Pronounced [te-ho-LO-te], and also known as temolote or texolotl, the word derives from the Nahuatl language:

  • Tetl = stone
  • Xocotl = grind or pulverize

It is the essential tool used with a molcajete to crush chiles, garlic, onions, tomatoes, herbs, spices, and more into flavorful purees and traditional salsas.

Features:

  • Made from natural volcanic stone (basalt)
  • Approx. 4"–5" length
  • Heavy, oval shape for effective grinding
  • Ideal replacement for worn or missing pestles
  • Traditional Mexican kitchen essential

Please Note:
Due to the natural stone material and handcrafted process, size, shape, color, texture, and porosity may vary. These variations are normal and part of the product’s authentic character.

Bring tradition back to your table and keep your molcajete working the way it was meant to.
