Step 1: Simply add your ingredients, then drop in the ceramic ball

Step 2: Screw the two halves together securely

Step 3: Give it a good shake, but look in to see how you're doing

Step 4: Open up and pour, scoop or run onto your food.

Here are a few suggestions to get you started:

Try using fresh thyme leaves, orange zest and olive oil for a tangy oil dressing great drizzled on a piece of grilled or pan-fried steak.

Shake up some garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, extra virgin olive oil and seasoning for a delicious pesto smear on bruschetta or serve drizzled over some slices of mozzarella.

Make a mixed spice sugar with cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, orange zest, ground ginger and sugar. Mix it all together and serve on mince pies at Christmas time it's the business!

Works a treat
I found this great for preparing salad dressings. Holds just the right amount and it is great for mashing garlic and herbs. I'm glad I bought it.

Stick to your mortar and pestle
I didn't have a problem with it doing what it was meant to but I found it quite awkward to clean (I don't have a dishwasher) especially around the locking mechanism. When it eventually broke I didn't feel too bad as it had been a present which I felt obliged to use. The old fashioned pestle and mortar is FAR simpler to use and a doddle to keep clean.

As Jaime O might say - This is definately not PUKKA!!!!'
Good idea, but the two halves don't lock together properly and tend to come apart when shaken vigorously, unless you hold it clamped in two hands.

Also I ordered the stainless steel version and they sent the plastic one... Amazon UK is only a shadow of the US version... Maybe Bezos needs to look at how things are operating in the UK/EU...

Maybe it should have been made in China and not the EU - haha!!

doesnt beat a mortar and pestle
i got this last year as a gift, and i found that it doesnt do the job that my mortar and pestle does. it doesnt seem to really grind the herbs and peppercorns that i have used in it. for just liquids i dont have a problem with it.

Does what it says on the 'tin'
As a keen home cook I've been looking for something like this that will do the job without plugging in yet another (so-called) time-saving appliance ...or bashing the living daylights out of herbs in my massive and very heavy pestle and mortar. The shaker is quick to use, easily cleanable and the ceramic ball definitely does the job of pummeling flavour out of those herbs. In other words, you can rustle up flavoursome dressings/marinades for recipes in seconds - perfect, well done Jamie!
