Saffron is among the most precious of spices. It is in fact just the tip of the pistil of the violet colored saffron flower (the reddish strands of which you can make out in the picture) - the Crocus Sativus, portrayed in masterly fashion by our friend Patrick Lachassagne, responsible for the photo: thank you, Patrick - that gives us this aromatic substance with the capacity to create the characteristic color and flavor of risotto, fish soups, desserts and liquors... An essentially oriental aroma, originating in Asia Minor, and produced for a number of centuries in certain demarcated areas of Italy such as the Val d'Orcia in Tuscany, and, above all, in the Abruzzo. This particular example, from the Navelli plain in Abruzzo is saffron par excellence; the most prized and certainly the most famous in the world. Saffron arrived in Abruzzo from Andalusia via the Domenican friars sometime between the 13th and 14th centuries. At around the same time, the Benedictines introduced it into Tuscany. Production of Navelli saffron demands an extraordinary degree of attention and dedication. This is immediately obvious when you consider that both harvesting and production, as undertaken by the Altopiano Cooperative of Navelli, is done by hand. It takes around two hundred thousand flowers to yield one kilo of saffron stamens. The most highly rated Navelli saffron for all culinary uses is in the form of stamens or strands. This has the highest component of aroma and flavor, but requires a little effort before use, in that it needs to be soaked in very hot water. The Navelli saffron is indispensable for a great Milanese-style risotto, or for an aromatic and elegant bouillabaisse, the famous fish soup from Marseilles. (It is also terrific, of course in home made fish soup).

Saffron is known as "the king of spices," and as the world's most expensive spice. Saffron is made from the dried stigmas of the flower species crocus. Each flower of the crocus sativus has only three pistils, and these must be picked by hand. Over 70,000 flowers are required to yield 1 lb. of saffron. It has been used since classical times as a flavoring in food and wine. It is an effective stimulant and digestive, increasing the flow of saliva and digestive juices. The very best saffron is grown in Valencia, Spain. Unlike some saffron, ours is made from the full stems and not ground-up pieces that can easily be adulterated. The price of saffron is dependent on its coloring power (graded categories I to IV with I being the strongest). The Select is Category 1 and the Siera is Category II.

Saffron is a super strong antioxidant with "housekeeping" benefits that clean you up from head to toe. It enhances male fertility. It helps relieve anxiety and tension. And ladies, it eases the discomforts of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). In Texas, researchers proved that saffron may help circulation vision loss. One clinical trial concluded "preliminary evidence of a possible therapeutic effect of saffron in the treatment of mild-to-moderate mood swings" It's also an anti-spasmodic. Pure authentic saffron is expensive, but worth it. Fake makers of it cut the saffron with other yellow-orange spices but mehr Saffron is 100 percent saffron, and they source from organic flowers. The value of this spice is derived from the fact that it is such a labor-intensive crop. Only five to seven pounds of saffron can be produced from each acre of land. The flavor of saffron, however, is very concentrated. One gram of saffron is enough to flavor forty servings of saffron rice or two large batches of paella. Our genuine Persian saffron comes in a nice packaging. Pushal Saffron (Mancha saffron) is of saffron contains the stigmas with a 3-5mm style. 101kg of saffron flowers produces 1kg of pushal saffron.
