How to Make Saffron Salt

  1. In a clean spice or coffee grinder, combine 1 cup kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads, and 1/2 teaspoon of water.
  2. Pulse until the mixture is a vibrant golden yellow, taking care to leave a few saffron threads intact for visual appeal.
  3. Transfer the saffron salt to a dark glass or non-reactive airtight container.
  4. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 1 month to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
