Wasn't too sure where to post this but have seen other molcajete related posts in this sub so thought it might be the best place.
Fairly sure this is a legit molcajete, I believe it was from mexgrocer. Smells sulphury when I grind it.
So I seasoned it a few times as per instructions I found online, had never actually got around to using it though due to having a child. Just got it out and the rice that was ground into the pores is now fully dried and came out a long with some rock dust so it's greyish to look at. So thinking this maybe requires more seasoning anyway?
If I poke about in the holes all the rice is just coarse sand that comes out so if I were to make a salsa using this I'm guessing the rice would just come out in the salsa and make it gritty? I don't really understand how you prevent this from happening. Does it need to be used regularly to keep it less dry and so that wouldn't happen?
