The Right Twist
Posted in Home & Living, Home Hints, kitchen on September 1st, 2010 by HSThis is so simple and logical that I almost feel ridiculous for posting this tip BUT I didn't know this so I figure that maybe there are others who didn't know that there is a correct way to grind *Salt and Pepper mills
When dispensing your Salt or Pepper from a grinder, it is best to twist the grinder in one direction, and this for most grinders is generally clockwise.
Why?? from my research ( yes research) I discovered that by twisting in a clockwise direction it allows the chamber of the grinder to be filled correctly before the grinding process takes place and avoids the risks of clogging.
Also avoid milling / grinding directly over your dish whilst it is cooking as the steam can dampen the salt and/or pepper and this can lead to clogging of the mechanisms of your Grinders
Happy grinding folks and if you have any tips you think are worth sharing, let us know
