Saffron
Saffron is the most precious and expensive spice in the world. The Saffron threads are actually the dried stigmas of the saffron flower. ‘Crocus Sativus Linneaus.’ Each flower contains only three stigmas. These threads must be picked from each flower by hand, and more than 75,000 of these flowers are needed to produce just one pound of Saffron threads. Saffron is used for its bright orange-yellow color, strong and distinctive flavor and aroma, and its therapeutic properties.
