Blue Salt, or Persian Blue Salt is a unique and rare mineral found in the mountain ranges of Iran. This is one of the only places in the world that has Blue Salt. Persian Blue Salt is formed from an ancient sea that dried out 110 million ago, was buried over time, and then compacted by the Earth. When tectonic plate movement created the mountain ranges of Iran, the Blue Salt veins in the rock became exposed. Our Persian Blue Salt is mined from these mountains. Due to the fact that this salt is mined from a buried ancient sea, it is very clean and pure, it has not been exposed to any modern environmental pollutants or contaminants. Blue Salt is a natural product, the blue colour is a natural side effect from this salt structure being compact. This salt was under great pressure from the Earth and compacted to form tight crystal structure, this compact structure refracts the blue light, this is what makes blue salt blue.
Our Persian Blue Salt collection comes in a variety of grain sizes. They are fine, corse, small rock salt, and large crystal.
Persian blue salt is rich in potassium. Potassium helps reduce blood pressure and cardiovascular health. Potassium is also helpful for muscle strength and bone strength and can protect against loss of muscle mass. It is involved in some body's key processes and 4700 milligrams of it should be consumed for adults.
Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of Crocus sativus, commonly known as the "saffron crocus". The vivid crimson stigma and styles, called threads, are collected and dried for use mainly as a seasoning and colouring agent in food. Saffron has long been the world's costliest spice by weight.
Although some doubts remain on its origin, it is believed that saffron originated in Iran. However, Greece and Mesopotamia have also been suggested as the possible region of origin of this plant. Saffron crocus slowly propagated throughout much of Eurasia and was later brought to parts of North Africa, North America, and Oceania.
Saffron's taste and iodoform-like or hay-like fragrance result from the phytochemicals picrocrocin and safranal. It also contains a carotenoid pigment, crocin, which imparts a rich golden-yellow hue to dishes and textiles. Its recorded history is attested in a 7th-century BC Assyrian botanical treatise and has been traded and used for thousands of years. In the 21st century, Iran produces some 90% of the world total for saffron
Saffron (Crocus sativus) is a plant. The dried thread-like parts of the flower (stigmas) are used to make saffron spice, food coloring, and medicine.
Saffron extract contains chemicals that might alter mood, kill cancer cells, decrease swelling, and act like antioxidants. It can take 75,000 saffron blossoms to produce a single pound of saffron spice. Saffron is largely cultivated in Iran and harvested by hand. It's one of the world's most expensive spices.
Persian blue salt is one of the rarest salt that could be found in a limited amount per year, it is pricy as blue salt mine consists of some veins in a big white salt mine and it shows how it is hard to harvest.

Unlike sea salt which is extracted from salt ponds, Persian blue salt is a salt fossile or gem, whose crystals were formed 100 million years ago in the precambrian seas. This sapphire blue salt formed as inland seas and lakes evaporated. This Persian blue salt existed a hundred million years ago along with species which disappeared at the time of the extinction of the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period due to an asteroid, a volcanic eruption or the retreat of the oceans: large marine and flying reptiles, the ammonites (ancestors of the nautilus) and dinosaurs. The blue colour of this Iranian salt comes from sylvinite, a potassium mineral, only present in the halite salts. They are normally pink and the blue colour is extremely rare. Persian blue salt is extracted from the mountains of the Semnan province in Northern Iran and more specifically in the Ergourz mountain range.
Persian blue salt is rich in nutritients. The mineral extracted from the Iranian mountains is rich in calcium, magnesium, iron and potassium. As only a few tons are extracted per year, itâ??s one of the worldâ??s rarest salts.
