There’s probably not a home in the world that doesn’t have salt & pepper in the kitchen or on the dining table; they’re the most necessary of condiments.
Given their culinary superpowers, these seasonings should be treated with due respect. That includes housing them in beautiful salt & pepper grinders.
The cheapest examples are like oversized chess pieces; painted in a lovely, shiny, on-trend grey colour. They’re the most traditional of the three options that we’ve short-listed.
The mid-range seasoning mill is a 2-in-one job, which I like – it takes up half the room in a tiny kitchen. However, even though the machine is rechargeable and doesn’t need batteries, I quite like the action of manually grinding my peppercorns and salt crystals.
The top-end Tom Dixon set is stunning in its timeless, space age design. Much as I love it – and it would be used every day – £150.00 is a pretty steep price tag and way out of our budget.
