Salsa de Molcajete. Salsa de Molcajete refers to a salsa that is ground by hand in a molcajete, Mexico's version of the mortar and pestle. Nearly all salsas used to be prepared this way, but now many cooks use blenders and food processors. Because of this, even in Mexico the term evokes nostalgia for the handmade quality of bygone days.
