The common instruction to add a pinch of salt or pepper is taken as inspiration with the 'Pinch' pepper and salt shakers that work to be held in such a manner. Featuring a larger base and a slimmer top, the 'Pinch' shakers are intended to be held in the manner that one would form their hands if they were adding a pinch of seasoning to a recipe.
The 'Pinch' pepper and salt shakers are the design work of Luke Mastrangelo and feature a decidedly simple yet modern aesthetic. The design of the shakers draws inspiration from the very recipes they are intended to be used for seasoning for a holistic expression of the very action behind a recipe instruction.
