hints
●For optimum performance when
processing spices we recommend
that you do not process more than
50g at a time in the mill.
●Whole spices retain their flavour for a
much longer time than ground
spices so it is best to grind a small
quantity fresh at a time to retain the
flavour.
●To release the maximum flavour and
essential oils whole spices are best
roasted prior to milling.
●Herbs are best chopped when clean
and dry.
