Seasoning Alignment
Night had settled, yet our Thanksgiving staging required one final strategic adjustment. Upon the counter sat a pair of heavy ceramic ramekins filled with coarse sea salt and cracked black peppercorns. Leaning my bayoneted rifle upright against a wooden pepper mill to steady my balance, I reached toward a miniature stainless steel pinch spoon resting askew on the marble. With measured leverage, I lifted the slender utensil and set its polished bowl squarely across the rim of the salt cellar, pointing its handle directly toward the pepper dish. Everything is organized and ready for you.
