The Bowl (Suribachi) The mortar is an earthenware bowl, glazed on the outside. The inside of the bowl has a ridged pattern (kushi-no-me) to facilitate grinding. How to Use Place the suribachi on your worktop. The bottom of the bowl is unglazed so you may need to protect your worktop by placing a towel beneath the bowl. The actual grinding is a two-handed process. Hold the top of the pestle with one hand and rotate the lower part with the other. In Japanese cooking the suribachi is used to crush sesame seeds as well as for various pastes. It was originally used to grind miso.
