BLUE COARSE SALT OF PERSIA

The blue coarse salt of Persia is a rare mineral salt from Persia (Iran) with a sweet and spicy taste and stunning appearance. It was formed 260 million years ago in prehistoric seas, and only a few tons are exported annually from the Semnan province in northern Iran. Its blue color is due to the local rocks during the formation of its crystalline structure.

This fine salt is rich in nutrients and minerals, such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium, which contribute to lowering blood pressure and cardiovascular health. It has a distinctive flavor property, as its intensity changes as it remains on the tongue and palate, with a mild pleasant sweet taste.

The Persian blue salt pairs perfectly with white fish, carpaccio, foie gras, tomato salads, and meats, enhancing the delicate flavors of the dishes.
