About this deal
Our spanish saffron comes from traceable producers and is grown in Spain, not just packaged in Spain like other brands.
Not many people are at work at this hour – but the crocus pickers of Safrà del Montsec are hard at it because this time of day, and these precise conditions, are just what’s needed to produce the world’s very best saffron. LemonSalt have taken every care to ensure that the information is accurate but we strongly recommend that you read the product packaging before use. Saffron crocus slowly propagated throughout much of Eurasia and was later brought to parts of North Africa, North America, and Oceania.Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. For cooking release, 1/2 teaspoon of threatened warm water for about 10 minutes and you will see the yellow saffron color start releasing.
It’s important for us to pick the flowers when they are still closed to ensure that the properties of our saffron are not altered by the pollination of the bees, who also intend to enjoy the harvest,” says Jaume Casado Carulla.After harvest, the flowers are unbladed – the painstaking process of individually separating by hand each vibrant-red pistil from its parent bloom. This way it is possible to preserve its rich aroma (enhancing the ingredients of any dish), flavour (adding a slightly bitter touch) and colour (converting a paella into a festival of colour).
Saffron can be added direct, ground or soaked in water or milk before use and then the coloured liquid used for a lighter flavour and aroma.
Herati Saffron is cultivated in the desert of western Afghanistan, where it has been growing for millennia.
