It was also called the Diamond salt for its bright color, or “salt of the kings” as it was used in the past only by nobles. For millennia it has been used as a therapeutic stone for its multiple benefits on the skin, and still today it is used for inhalations, hydro-salt baths and in the kitchen.

This type of paprika gives the typical flavor of red pepper, of which it represents a dried version and reduced in the form of crunchy flakes. Typical of Mongolian cuisine, it lends itself well to the preparation of various recipes, particularly tasty as a spice for stews, baked goods, pizzas, raw salads and cheeses. Recommended for cooking in the preparation of various first courses to flavor their taste. The version of the refined paprika in flakes is convenient and can also be used in considerable quantities; otherwise you risk giving a weak contribution to the dish.
