Fill the molcajete bowl with uncooked rice (some prefer uncooked hard corn kernels), and wet slightly (this prevents the rice from flying out). Grind rice with the ajolote (pronounced: ah-ho-LO-teh), the pear shaped rock included. Keep grinding rice, and changing to new rice until the rice looks clean. The rice is sanding the interior of the molcajete bowl smooth. Although this is a long process, once the interior is smooth, you never have to cure the molcajete again. And even the most ancient of these kitchen implements will occasionally give up a little grit. The traditional method of curing a molcajete can take several cleaning sessions over the course of a few days.
