All You Need To Know About Getting A Portable Herb Grinder

By Susan Lee


The many tasks and ways of cooking a dish has spurred many kitchen tools and instruments that have evolved through time. These inventions aim to make cooking a more efficient art and a more precise science. These incredible designed instruments can be easily found anywhere.

Spice grinders are one of these ingenious innovations. They have been modified from the ancient equivalent, the mortar and pestle. A new handy tool for anyone who cooks is the portable herb grinder. They are great for camping trips, and other out of the house kitchen cooking escapades.

These well designed tools save time and energy and lets the cook focus on the more important part of cooking, making sure the food tastes great. This particular tool makes the spices so fine that their flavors are properly distributed and are maximized. This is a great improvement compared to having irregular lumps of ingredient on the dish.

These utensils are made out of different type of materials. Whatever type one chooses to purchase, is according to preference but there area some strong pros and cons. The materials grinders are made of vary from natural to synthetic. These are commonly wood, plastic, metal and aluminum.

Metal alloy and aluminum made utensils tend to be the most durable ones. Although, they are more likely to flake off and have some of the debris get mixed into the ground and then eventually on to the food. Arguably, while this is essentially harmful, there is not enough flakes of alloy that can get mixed on the spices to have any actual impact on health.

Wood herb grinders are delicate. So it is best only used for softer spices. Plastic can easily be the cheapest among them all. But still this type comes with a price. This material is prone to chipping and plastic is an obviously not an ingredient to anything humans should ingest.

These simple machines differ in structure based on their function. There are different numbers of chambers for each kind. A two chamber grinder does not have the convenience of a catcher and is the messier option. A three chambered one has a catcher and can be directly used with a measuring utensil. The most complex on the list is the four chambered type complete with the catcher and a scraper included for particles that might get caught in the chamber.

Cleaning these instruments is easy. There are a variety of methods, application is still a matter of preference. One method is using boiling water on a pot and gently dropping the tool in the pot. This only works for the metal types since plastic can melt and wood will get soggy. Method number two uses a toothbrush and carefully cleaning with the aid of water . This takes more energy that sterilization, but it gives a thorough cleaning.

Any cooking enthusiast would strongly consider getting this tool. This guarantees every cooked meal smelling delectably of fresh herbs and spices. There is nothing more organic and delicious than growing the spices, drying them and then using them directly, when compared to the grocery store alternative.
