Household Grinders
Wet grinding is not very common in western cuisine but is very popular in Indian kitchens and grinders are used to make pastes from grains and lentils. These grinders generally consists of a few stone plates that are rolled again and again another stone plate with the items to be grinded between them. Generally, wet grinding is considered advantageous over mixers or blenders because the stone grinder does not generate a lot of heat, which can change the flavor of the food and also, the stones don't lose their sharpness as quickly as metal blades giving wet grinders a longer life.

Famous quotes containing the word household:
“Compared to other parents, remarried parents seem more desirous of their child’s approval, more alert to the child’s emotional state, and more sensitive in their parent-child relations. Perhaps this is the result of heightened empathy for the child’s suffering, perhaps it is a guilt reaction; in either case, it gives the child a potent weapon—the power to disrupt the new household and come between parent and the new spouse.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
