Saffron in the Kitchen
The rarest and most regal spice in the world, it turns every food it touches golden. The stigmas are picked as the flowers open- an entire harvest is completed in around- the- clock days. A small amount of the spice goes a long way, so there is no need to blend more than a pinch of the threads.
Culinary, saffron is potent with both aromatic flavor and a golden color.
