Can you describe how to "muddle" the shiso?

Thanks,

In response to Muddle? posted by Soup2Nuts:


Are you familiar with a mortar and pestle? The muddler is like the pestle, it's a wooden bulb implement that is used to crush the mint or shiso and release its volatile oils, usually in the glass or shaker.

Here's a great reference from Epicurious which I include to share the source: mortar and pestle.
