Tejolote - Piedra de Molcajete / Molcajete Pestle - Mano de Molcajete. NOTE THAT SIZE, SHAPE OR STONE COLOR MAY VARY
Need a replacement Tejolote? Your molcajetes don't need to be neglected because you don't have a tejolote (pestle). MexGrocer.com comes to your rescue with high quality hand stone pestles to complement your molcajetes.
Tejolote pronounced [the-hoh-LOH-the] also known as temolote o telmalchin, is the matching hand-held grinding tool also made of the same volcanic rock or basalt material than the Molcajete. Tejolote or Texolotl derives from the Nahuatl Tetl (Stone) y Xocotl (Grind or pulverize); It's a heavy, oval shaped rock used to grind and pulverize peppers, onions, tomatoes and spices into thick purees and salsas in a molcajete. The Ancient Aztecs made their molcajetes out of ceramic instead of stone, and used to grind grains, herbs, and other food substances as well as medicines.
I ordered 5 jars of the Salsa, as we love this on our Tacos. The product is great, but the outdate on the jars was just shy of 6 months out. I think, that when someone orders this many jars, that whomever prepares the order for shipping should check the outdates and pick jars with longer outdates.
I warmed the tortillas in the microwave before assembling my enchiladas. The tortillas rolled up nicely without cracking, which was what I was looking for in a tortilla. Very pleased. My only issue is that there was a delay in the tortillas arriving (4 days), an issue with UPS, not the store.
