Peugeot Paris u'Select Manual Salt Mill - Adjustable Grinder

Freshly grinding pepper, salt, herbs, and spices for cooking and seasoning offers many benefits. A high-quality mill with a specifically designed grinding mechanism can release the aromas and essential oils of the spice, resulting in better flavor than pre-ground options. Additionally, using freshly ground spices or minerals provides control over the coarseness of the grind, allowing for customization according to taste or necessity.

When selecting a pepper, salt, or spice grinder, it's important to consider the grinding mechanism, design and appearance, and ease of use. Peugeot, a company with a rich history dating back to the 19th century, offers a wide range of exceptional quality mills and grinders. The company's iconic pepper grinding mechanism design, in particular, is considered a benchmark in the industry.

Peugeot's spice-specific mechanisms are the primary difference between their products and those of other brands. With seven unique mechanisms for different spices, each made of the ideal design and constructed from the best available material, Peugeot ensures that each spice can be ground effectively.

The Pepper Grinding Mechanism is a two-stage burr-style system, featuring helix-shaped grooves and teeth that guide whole peppercorns to crack and grind consistently, releasing essential oils for maximum flavor. The Salt Crushing Mechanism, on the other hand, consists of two ribbed plates made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, providing a consistent grind for coarse, dry sea salt.

Peugeot's patented u'Select system allows for quick, easy, and accurate adjustments to the grind settings, providing six pre-defined levels of grind for pepper and salt, with infinite possibilities in between. This allows for precise customization based on personal taste and the specific dish being prepared.

To achieve the best results, Peugeot recommends using only dry, hard, whole peppercorns that are 5mm or less in diameter for their pepper mills. For salt, they suggest using dry salt with a diameter of 4mm, such as coarse sea salt or rock salt. It's important not to use the salt mill for grinding pepper or any other spice, or damp sea salt, as the moisture content can cause corrosion.

Overall, Peugeot mills and grinders are made to the highest standards, with durable construction and precision grinding mechanisms. With a wide range of options, from classic manual mills to electric grinders with the u'Select system, Peugeot products are designed to enhance the cooking and dining experience.
