I finished seasoning it today and made a batch of salsa!
3 roma tomatoes
2 jalapeños rojos
2 chiles manzanos
2 garlic cloves
1/4 white onion
Handful of cilantro
Juice from half of a limón
Salt to taste
I roasted the vegetables (forgot to take a pic before I started crushing my onions & garlic – whoops!), then just started going to town in the molcajete. I've never used chiles manzanos before, so I wasn't sure how many to use – it turned out great, but a little milder than I expected, so I'll be sure to use more next time.
Thanks to everyone for the confirmation on my molcajete being real, and thanks for the tips for seasoning!

Congrats! Looks great!
I just started my molecajete journey like 4-5 months ago and loving every minute of it.
You should do guac next! I noticed a bigger difference in my guac vs salsa, tbh. I think it’s because the aromatics are more evenly distributed though the avocados.
That looks beautiful, im sure it tastes the same
Looks incredible.
