You can grind cinnamon sticks using either an electric grinder or manually.
Electric Grinding
An electric grinder offers a faster and easier method. Here's how:
- Break the Cinnamon Sticks: Before placing them in the grinder, break the cinnamon sticks into smaller pieces. This helps the grinder work more efficiently and prevents damage.
- Fill and Cover: Put the broken cinnamon pieces into the electric grinder. Make sure the lid is securely in place.
- Grind: Press the button to start the motor. Grind until you achieve the desired consistency.
Manual Grinding
Manual grinding is more labor-intensive but provides more control over the final texture. Unfortunately, the provided reference doesn't detail this method. Common manual methods involve using a mortar and pestle or a microplane.
