Bit of a stupid question - how do you crush garlic in a mortar and pestle, to get a paste? I'm never sure if I'm meant to be thumping it, or grinding it. And what about dry spices - thump or grind?
I've got a really nice heavy stone mortar and pestle, and I do use it, but I just suspect I could be using it better, you know?
Thanks ...
