Batan (stone) stone

The batán is a kitchen utensil used to process different kinds of foods in South Asian, South American and Andean cuisine. It has a flat stone and a grinding stone called an uña. The uña is held in both hands and rocked over the food in the batán. Depending on the process wished, the uña's weight is slightly held back, let loose over, or pressed on. The rocking movements also vary depending on the procedure. The grinding is done dry or with water or oil. The batán has been used since before the arrival of Spaniards in South America.
