Saffron Whole

Here’s one of the best buys you’ll find for Superior Spanish Saffron! Our vendors harvest more than a quarter million Crocus flowers by hand to obtain one pound of Saffron.

Saffron, which is also known as Karkom or Sahafarn, was first used as a spice over 4,000 years ago by the Egyptians and Romans. Our Whole Saffron, with threads that sport a deep orange-red color, imparts a robust flavor to fish dishes, soups, broths, stews, bouillabaisse, paella and rice. Ground Turmeric can be used as a substitute for the coloring properties of saffron, but will not replace the flavor.

Add Saffron to cold milk and stir in a teaspoon of Laney Pure Alfalfa Honey for a refreshing drink.

Many choose Whole Saffron over Powder Saffron claiming the threads add more flavor and display higher curative qualities. Store your Whole Saffron in an airtight container in cool, dry place.

Usage

Soak or infuse saffron threads before adding saffron to a recipe.
