Maasai Sea Salt & Pepper Grinder
$7.25
Named after a pair of Maasai herders who fell in love with the classic flavor combination over an impromptu meal near Ngorongoro, Ukuva’s vital table staple combines black peppercorns and sea salt in the must-have condiment for all situations.
As pepper ages, some of the essential oils – the volatiles that give pepper its energizing properties – evaporates.
In pepper that lives alone, the evaporated essential oils are lost, but pepper that lives with salt has an advantage: the salt absorbs those oils and soon, the salt starts tasting peppery and when the two are ground together, they create a glorious salt and pepper flavor experience.
Ingredients: 70% pure Khoisan Sea Salt and 30% Black Pepper.
3 oz.

The secret to spice is in the balance.
Blending spices is part art, part craft, part luck and part magic. The main theme in a blend is fairly obvious, but the real test is the choice of subtle bits that add nuance…those accents that will add little pops of salt, or sweet or acid or herb.
