    I've been watching Test Kitchen for over a decade and there is more concise and informative content now there ever has been. Love seeing everyone's personality shine and the sincere humor through all of these recent segments; Jack is fantastic here. Bending the Kitchen's format to the UA-cam platform looks to have been pretty seamless, congrats all around.

    Jack really shined in this tutorial! So much good information. It made me buy a new pepper mill because mine doesn't adjust down to fine very well. No more pre-ground, canned black pepper for me! And the thought of being able to store fresh cilantro for two weeks? That's like rocket science to me. Thanks, Jack!

    I have an electric pepper mill and I really like it. The capacity is only about 2-3 tablespoons because the motor and batteries take up space, but one-handed operation is really convenient because then I have my "food" hand (which may have touched raw meat, or might be coated in flour at the moment), and my "tool" hand, which I can use to operate the pepper grinder. It means fewer trips to the sink to wash my hands.
