Peugeot Bistro Zirlion Salt & Pepper Mill Set (New Model) / Olivewood

The French company Peugeot may be most commonly associated with cars, but they made spice mills first, far back in 1874. In the 146 years since, no other salt and pepper mills have stayed as sharp, resisted corrosion as well, and lasted as long, which is why nobody in the culinary industry would hesitate to call them 'iconic'. The grinding mechanism of the salt mill is made from medical-grade zirconia, which stays sharp over a lifetime of use (and is backed by a warranty). Zirlion mills excel at producing a finer, more consistent grind. This patented mechanism grinds a wide variety of dry salts, including flaky salt, with utmost precision. In its finest grind, you can use less salt with no loss of flavour. The pepper mill features the same mechanism Peugeot has used since 1874, which positions peppercorns in neat rows and grinds them effectively. Made of olivewood and adorned with bright metal knobs, just like the original design, this duo of Bistro salt and pepper mills embodies casual elegance. Equipped with Peugeot’s foolproof mechanisms for salt and pepper, you can control the coarseness of the salt and pepper in these mills by tightening the top for a finer grind and loosening it for a more varied texture. You can tell the difference between the salt and pepper grinders by the white and black colours of the rings on the top knobs.

Note: These mills cannot be interchangeably, as their inner mechanisms are different. The salt mill cannot be used with wet salt like fleur de sel or grey salt.
