Giveaway: Double Grinder from Linden Sweden
Shop: Available from Amazon for $62.99
As you've cleaned out your cupboards for the Kitchn Spring Cure, you may have realized that you need a real pepper grinder. Or you may have seen all the nice whole spices in the back of your cupboard, languishing until they're called for. Well, here's a tool for you. The Linden double grinder has two grinding ends so you can have fresh spices on call all the time.
This is a hefty and weighty grinder, slim and tall. We love its multi-function design, too. It's a space saver and would get us cracking two different kinds of pepper on our steak.
To enter, tell us one spice OTHER than pepper, that you'd like to use in this spice grinder.
Type a comment in the comment section below by 8:59pm PT/11:59 EST Sunday, April 6, 2008. The winner will be selected at random and will be asked to submit a review of the product. Good luck!
US residents only, please.
