I often feel bad for blokes that like to cook. There seems to be an assumption that only women buy things for the kitchen, so there is a lot of pastels and cupcakes splashed across everything. The Hairy Bikers are now working to even up the balance with their new collection of cookware. The Hairy Biker Pestle and Mortar for example is finished in cobalt blue glaze that offers a masculine style. The inside of the Mortar is unglazed, revealing the cream stoneware. The unusual mortar shape allows the matching pestle to rest on either side and gives it a distinctive profile. Available from John Lewis, the Hairy Biker Pestle and Mortar is £25.
