Pure Spanish Saffron - 1g

Pure Spanish Saffron - 1g Review



Saffron is considered the most prestigious spice in India. Even though it is used commonly in Indian cooking, it is imported from Spain. Saffron is the stigma of Crocus sativus, which is a flowering plant in the crocus family. This spice is the most expensive spice available because more than 225,000 stigmas must be hand picked to produce just one pound. Sun Brand saffron is saffron in its pure form, a mass of compressed, threadlike, dark orange strands.

Taste: Saffron has a pungent, spicy, bitter flavor with a sharp and penetrating essence.

Available in 1 gram, 2 grams, and 1 ounce tin

At this time, saffron is a very scarce spice and is available in 2 sizes only.

Please Note: Laxmi brand, Gathering brand, or Sun brand may be shipped.

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.

Spanish Saffron La Mancha Tin (1 gram) (Pack of 3)

Spanish Saffron La Mancha Tin (1 gram) (Pack of 3) Review



Spanish Saffron La Mancha. Price per 1gr tins. This 100 % pure Spanish Saffron La Mancha features superior grade quality Spanish saffron. It takes over 200.000 flower heads to produce half a pound of Spanish saffron La Mancha. Spanish Saffron is the finest spice in the world. Hand harvested from the crocus sativus flower, this is the absolutely indispensable ingredient in Spanish and Italian cooking. The Saffron from La Mancha accounts for a small portion of the world's production, but the quality is unmistakably superior to that grown in Turkey, Iran, and India. These Deep red threads (stigma) contain no waste or white plant parts (styles) that reduce the quality or add to cost; only the best of the best in our products! Tips for use of Saffron: We recommend 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of Saffron threads be added to a recipe that serves 6-8 people. Saffron releases it's flavor when heated, thus it is important to add the saffron before the dish is done cooking. You may add the saffron directly to the dish, or infuse it in warm liquid to release the flavor. Feel free to experiment by making a saffron "tea" by using water, broth, or wine to add to your favorite recipe. Some traditional recipes recommend gently toasting the saffron in a skillet (being careful not to burn) and then grinding prior to adding to the dish.

Princesa de Minaya Spanish Saffron - 1 Gram

Princesa de Minaya Spanish Saffron - 1 Gram Review

Princesa de Minaya Spanish Saffron - 1 Gram Feature

  • D.O La Mancha
  • The Best Saffron You Can Buy
The definitive gourmet food guide says 'Princesa de Minaya' is 'An artisanal saffron of immense quality'. Unquestionably the best of the best, La Tienda can bring it to your kitchen because the family that produces the saffron is satisfied with the life they have: producing the best, and in low volume. Our order meets their personal needs, they dream of no more. For several generations the family of Maria Ángeles and Juan Antonio Serrano has cultivated the highest quality saffron in Spain - if not the world - on their ten acre plot. They need about 400 crocus flowers to obtain the two grams of saffron you find packed in this bottle. This family collects, prunes and toasts saffron on a daily basis, which has a decisive effect on its aromatic, flavor profile and coloring strength - and all three are very intense. Their production for the year is no more than 50 lbs. depending on the harvest. Since saffron is such a precious condiment, the market is being flooded with many inferior grades and outright counterfeits. The 'Denomination of Origin La Mancha' seal on each jar, guarantees that Princesa de Minaya is actually grown in La Mancha, the site of the finest saffron (azafrán) in the world.

100% Pure Spanish Saffron in a Tin Box - 1oz Feature

  • Carefully handpicked and each thread is peeled, toasted and packaged
  • Has a very long shelf life
  • Product of spain
This exotic looking tin contains 1 ounce of Mancha quality Saffron filaments imported from Spain. Saffron is one of the world's most precious spice composed of a variety of Fall blooming crocus. Each flower produces three delicate red stigmas known as saffron. During the harvesting, each flower is carefully handpicked and each thread is peeled, toasted and packaged. Over 6,000 flowers must be handpicked to produce 1 ounce of mancha saffron. It has a very long shelf life when kept in an airtight container away from direct light and a small amount goes a long way. Steep a few pinches of threads in warm water, broth or alcohol for 20 minutes and then use this "tea" and thread mixture to add a unique flavor and aroma as well as a lovely yellow color to rice, pasta, dessert, ice cream, fish and both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes.
