Adjustable Multi Spice Blend Dispenser

Open the marked sliders to the percentage of that spice the recipe calls for.

The idea is to take the popular multi spice shakers that have pop open lids and make those lids adjustable sliders that expose a variable amount of shaker holes. More you open the delineated slider, the more of that particular spice comes out.

So in the (horrible) illustration a blend of 100% coriander, 50% pepper and 25% garlic salt is facilitated by opening the respective sliders accordingly.

And do be clear, I'm sure adjustable dispenser openings are common, but as far as I'm aware there is no such configuration of these allowing for specific adjustable mixtures of various spices.

Might have a link to a lot of various recipes that could make cooking more fun. Add some spice to your life.

       But in my experience, random amounts of spice come out the shaker holes. This is not calibrable.

       Well, but it would average out no? You’d basically get the ratio you wanted I’d think.

       It's doable. The spice must flow.
