Judging from the number of television programs and shows on cooking featuring hot and spicy food from all over the globe, chillis must be becoming popular. These fiery spices do leave a delicious tingling in the mouth, if you can handle the heat. And if you are a convert to the sizzling stuff, you will certainly appreciate Peugeot Vendome Chilli Mill Model 1845P.
The Vendome Chilli Mill is made of a clear acrylic tube topped with wood in either natural or chocolate color. With the transparent acrylic you can see if you are running out of the spice. The wood top houses the grinding mechanism that is constructed out of stainless steel. A ball nut perched on the grinder’s housing allows the adjustment of the consistency of the chilli. Before grinding, however, the mill first chops the spice to guarantee an even ground.
For an easy refill, the entire top can be removed. To keep the chilli fresh and to prevent the corrosion of the grinding mechanism, a special coating is applied inside the mill. Cleaning is easy as all you need is a damp cloth. In fact, it is not advisable to immerse it in water.
The Peugeot Vendome Chilli Mill Model 18450P stands 5½ inches with a diameter of 2 inches. At this size, it can hold a good amount of those blazing spices with sky high Scoville Heat Units or S.H.U.s.
