Yup, I'm sad that this won't further my dream of selling artisan MSG at farmer's markets. I could do a coarse "kosher" MSG, but that might taste terrible.
You can buy in bulk at chinese store and add some smoke flavour or paprika and wham! New Product! (Oh No!) :)
An MSG grinder! Burr mill of course.
ugh - grinding things that do not contain essential oils (like peppercorns = essential oils!) is worthless, annoying and bordering on pretentious.
Powdered sugar is produced by grinding, as is table salt...
So, add trying to achieve a specific texture, or melting property to things with essential oils and you're fine (Though I cannot help but smirk at the idea of using a sugar grinder for your tea)
Op means grinding fresh. You can buy salt in a plastic spice grinder, for example. It's cute, but doesn't improve the salt like grinding does for spices.
