Thanks for this, mine arrived today. Great kit for that price. Already mixed up some coarse blends.

Mine too - I love it! It actually grinds!, and the presentation box it came in is great. Might get some for gifts.

after the obligatory check on amazon, mine will be winging its way over.....
+ I quite like the green not liekly to mix it up with salt and pepper. you get 2 spare jars? assuming they are properly air tigtht sounds like a home mix for lamb, pork and beef! (chicken is the Mrs department)
good spot, cheers for trhe link.

Yes two spare jars and they are air-tight. The jars are made from glass, with plasticky/rubber bits for the top and bottom. I still haven't figured out what to put in the other two.

Any suggestions of an interesting mix welcome

The ceramic grinders are great though - beats the pants off my older wooden one with a stainless steel grinders, or the Jamie Oliver squeeze one which was given to me as a gift (it broke in - what, 5 minutes - and landed in the bin).

I currently have chilli flakes in one, to use like pepper etc when I want a bit of heat. In the other I have cumin seeds, Mexican oregano and garlic granules. I use these a lot in day to day cooking as I frequently cook Mexican/cuban dishes.

In the other I have a mix of green, pink and black peppercorns. I love the lid on the grinder that allows you to pre grind and measure your spice without having to grind over a steaming pot, keeping the moisture out.

This evening I made Enchiladas and switched between all three as needed. Love it.

Another one I was thinking was lemon pepper.

Oven dry some lemon rinds and add them to black peppercorns in the same pot, grind as needed.

Great suggestions - thanks.
