How often do you need to grind more than three cups of spices?

 

what I meant was that for a 3-cup blender there are lots of choices for much less money.

tam?

som tam is a thai salad - typically made with green papaya or green mango.  The main ingredient is shredded and lightly pounded in a tall m&p (so stuff doesn't escape) with chiles, palm sugar, limes, etc.

 

The Thai also use a smaller, granite m&p for grinding their curry pastes..

I think you're blending apples and oranges.

 

Link an equivalent 3 cup blender.

Jo, you're right.  I was actually thinking about my 3-cup Food Processor like this one.

It's what I use to grind small amounts.
