Damian Zedower - A Beautiful Grind

There are few things in the kitchen that don’t benefit from the addition of freshly ground pepper. Sadly, it seems that pepper’s salty friend gets all the love these days – with fancy varieties and artisanal producers popping up left and right. But there’s no reason why the ubiquitous pepper mill shouldn’t get a little attention too. Chef Damian Zedower of Asana at the Mandarin Oriental agrees which is why he wants a Peugeot peppermill this year. Yup, the same folks that craft the cars have also been putting out state-of-the-art mills since the early 1800s (in fact, the grinder business predates their automotive activities). Equipped with adjustable grind settings, these sleek mills churn out the most consistent perfect pieces of pepper for you to sprinkle on anything and everything. Pick up one for anyone who needs a little spice in their life. And remember, a grind is a terrible thing to waste.
