Blue salt is a coarse salt studded with sapphire-coloured rock crystals. It is extracted from mines of pure, unpolluted crystallised sea salt which have formed over 260 million years – meaning that it’s a finishing salt which oozes history and sophistication. One of the rarest and most precious of salts, Persian Blue is produced from a single seam running through an ancient salt lake bed in Iran. Its colour is due to an optical illusion, due to the movement of tectonic plates which results in the salt taking on the colour of sylvin, another mineral.

Blue Persian salt has a mild taste, which means that it won’t overwhelm delicate flavours. It has a strong coarse texture though, retaining a clean bite. It is used in High-end Restaurants due to its colour and sophistication.

The Minerals in Persian blue salts are the reasons for their health benefits.  It contains a couple of nutrients that are all very important and some essential for the human body.

Epsom Salt.

An Epsom salt bath is known to ease pain and relieve inflammation, making it beneficial in the treatment of sore muscles, bronchial asthma, and migraine headaches.  Epsom salt with water leaves a great silky, smooth feeling on the skin.

Inulin

A naturally occurring fructose polysaccharide (sugar) is found in the roots and rhizomes of several plants, for example, chicory. It is used in skincare for its prebiotic activity, meaning that it reduces the growth of bad bacteria in favour of friendly microorganisms naturally present on the skin.
