Traditional_Key_763 on September 29, 2024 11:08 pm im thinking this is probably not meant to be put on a gas stove with point heat like that
Used_Recording8500 on September 29, 2024 11:41 pm Pretty sure that’s a potion, not a sauce. In any case, if the steam starts coming off of it in the shape of a skull, maybe don’t eat whatever your mother puts this on.

helladopex on September 29, 2024 11:45 pm still waiting for the day i can sneak one of these out of the Mexican restaurant in my leftovers box.
Angelaw1215 on September 29, 2024 11:48 pm okay i feel like i should mention she was not COOKING the sauce in it, she was heating it
siobakkuepng on September 29, 2024 11:52 pm can’t she behave like a normal person and use normal cookware
CompanyOther2608 on September 30, 2024 12:07 am Wow! I didn’t know you can put Molcajetes on stoves.
poofyDapyro on September 30, 2024 12:11 am hey if cultural significance is worth more than you’re health then keep it up!!
Dalmanza4 on September 30, 2024 12:25 am I didn’t know molcajetes were made with volcanic rock. Very cool
Accomplished-Boot-81 on September 30, 2024 12:27 am Why bother with this? Isn’t cooking like this very inefficient. Ignoring the possible health concers.

Does she not own a saucepan? I don’t think that’s safe.

The real mystery is how the stove top is so clean.
Besides the flame thing, it’s a great idea
My Mom had one too.
Molcahete, it’s a magic Latin flavor machine.

Sauce?
Was she chanting incantations as she stirred?

Ok first of all, that’s a molcajete.
Does she weigh the same as a duck?
