A grinder set lives on the table, which means it is judged on looks as well as function — and this one is finished to sit out permanently rather than be stored in a cupboard. Practically, it does what every grinder does and what no shaker can: it cracks peppercorns at the moment of use, releasing the volatile oils that carry pepper's aroma and that have long since evaporated from anything pre-ground. Two separate grinders keep salt and pepper apart, which matters because salt corrodes some grinding mechanisms and flavours transfer between them. Suitable for a dining table where guests season their own food, and beside the hob where most seasoning actually happens.

Buying guide
Use whole black peppercorns and coarse rock or sea salt — fine table salt clogs a mill and damp salt corrodes it. Never swap the contents between grinders. Adjust the coarseness for the job: fine for finishing a plate, coarse for a steak or a marinade. Grind pepper at the end of cooking as well as during it, since heat drives off the aroma you are grinding for. Keep both grinders away from the steam above a hob, which is what makes salt clump, and keep them dry at all times.
How it compares
Against shakers, grinders give aroma that pre-ground spice has already lost. Against a single combination mill, separate grinders avoid flavour transfer and mechanism corrosion. For a table where guests help themselves quickly, shakers are faster; grinders are for people who cook.
