Peugeot Mignonette Salt and Pepper Mill

Yes, the set is designed to handle both. However, for optimal performance and to avoid cross-contamination of flavors, it is best to dedicate one mill specifically to salt and the other to peppercorns.

Because these mills are silver-plated, they are not dishwasher safe. To maintain their luster, wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth; if needed, use a gentle silver polish specifically formulated for plated items.

The Mignonette series features a fixed, precision-engineered grind setting designed to provide a consistent, classic output ideal for table use. It does not offer the adjustable grind settings found on some of Peugeot's larger, more technical mills.

Each mill stands at four inches tall. Their compact, petite profile makes them very easy to handle and store, though they are smaller than standard kitchen-prep mills, making them better suited for tabletop dining than heavy-duty cooking.

For the best results, use dry sea salt or rock salt crystals. Avoid using moist sea salt or fleur de sel, as the moisture can corrode the steel mechanism over time.
