Each mill provides plenty of room for you to fill it with your favorite dry seasoning. Grind directly over the food. The grinding is done in three steps (3DCut): 1st: Grabs and cracks each peppercorn and breaks it in half 2nd: Cuts them into smaller pieces 3rd: Sends them to the small teeth and grinds them to the selected thickness Handcrafted Greek product that meets specific standards of high quality and functionality.
