,
to support team,
I purchased hardstone(hand chiseled large sized mortar & pestle last week from Zishta. It's cost was Rs/_7.50 . I seasoned it by grinding rice, garlic etc etc for many times, but still stone dust is coming out from it every time when i move pestel in the mortar. I don't find it safe for grinding food in it. Kindly resolve my issue.
Dear Radha
Our team will connect with you and resolve this issue to your satisfaction. All you have to do is apply a mix of castor oil and turmeric mixture and allow the stone to rest for 3 days. Then wash and start using it. This will completely remove any dust particles.
