Old Kithcen Equipment

"lesung batu" or "mortar and pestle"...have you ever heard this before in BM or BI (seldom being known). Nowadays, housewives are more exposed to brand new electrical mixing blender than a "lesung batu". Is a shame of not knowing what is it...(mom always emphasizes)

I thought i've missed a chance to see it in naked eyes. Surprisingly, our house has one, only one. Mom uses it to crush down the recipe till it gives out a mild aroma to the cook. It is better to learn how does it work because electrical mechanism spoils the original taste yet, lesung batu is a gift from our ancestor. We all should appreciate it.

If your mom still insisting using electrical blender, prove her with your "nenek moyang".
