The World’s most expensive spice, Saffron is the stigma that is plucked from a low-growing, purple-flowered crocus. There are only 3 Saffron stigmas per flower and 5 acres of Saffron plants yields somewhere between 500g and 750g of Saffron stigmas in a good year! 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.
