Lived with a suecheff for a bit. Her restaurant was big time. She had a degree from some university. Made some damn fine breakfast. Sex was so so. Anyway, I figure she knew what she was talking about. Every herb had to be ground right before use. Theory was, if it was ground earlier there would be more surface area and more oxidation. Been thinking on that, peppers, and how if you grid dried pods between your fingers you are asking for trouble.
So wondering, has anyone thought of or produced those little grinder bottles that you can buy whole black pepper in? Even if the hot peppers were already broken up a bit, grinding them into a powder as you put it on your food would still decrease oxidation. Hmmm..
