The Pepper Crusher says "Slow. Slow. Slow and Steady wins the race"

The Pepper Crusher says "Slow. Slow. Slow and Steady wins the race"

This was a learning from the Pepper Crusher which we use during the breakfast at Residence Inn by Marriott where I currently stay. If we rotate the Pepper Crusher quite fast, it just gives very few amount of powder to our dishes. But if we focus on the grind alongwith slowly and steadily rotating it, the amount of pepper that gets dropped onto our dish is more. There is a very common saying that 'Haste makes Waste' and 'Slow and Steady wins the race'. I just felt that the Pepper Crusher reemphasized this thought during the breakfast hour.

There is another lighter hilarious recall with reference to the Pepper Crusher. In olden days, ladies used to grind betel nuts in a small hand-held stone right. Wouldn't this be kind of similar to that one? A new innovation has a finer traditional touch to that of an ancestral thought.
