Product Info:
Due to customer demand, we have added this Premium Saffron to our line. The Premium Grade offers a higher potency of flavor and color (minimum crocine content of 150), so you can use less to achieve the flavor you seek Saffron (Crocus Sativus) is the most expensive spice in the world because of its harvesting process. Imagine harvesting thousands of crocus flowers by hand, and painstakingly extracting three individual threads (called stigmas) that grow inside the flower. Collect over 200,000 threads and you've got one pound Saffron threads range from deep red to bright orange in color and can reach 1" long. The threads have a distinct flavor and aroma, reminiscent of bitter almonds. Saffron's sublime flavor is infused into countless dishes and can also be used as a yellow dye. Most of the Saffron sold in the U.S. comes from Spain. Other areas that produce Saffron include Portugal, Italy, France, Turkey and India.
Suggested Use:
Saffron's delicate flavor compliments light meats, fish and poultry. Frequently used to season Pilaf, Italian Risotto and Mexican rice. It's often added to breads like Saffron buns, a traditional part of Swedish Christmas meals. Saffron is directly added to the dish at the beginning of the cooking process.
Ingredients:
Saffron threads.
Basic Preparations:
Saffron has a distinctive aroma and a penetrating, bitter, but highly aromatic taste. The threads need no preparation. For best results with flavor and color, grind the threads prior to use. When adding threads to dishes with very little liquid, soak saffron first in luke warm water and add to the end of cooking.
