100% PURE SAFFRON, grown on our farm in Rhinebeck, NY. Hand planted, harvested, cured, and bottled. Derived from the bright red stigma of the crocus sativus flower, saffron has long been one the most revered and distinctive spices around the world. Saffron has an incredibly long shelf life when stored in a cool dark place.
To get the most flavor and color out of your saffron, you will first need to bloom the spice: Grind a pinch of saffron (around 8-12 stigmas) with a mortar and pestle. You can add a tiny bit of salt or sugar to help achieve a finer grind. Add a few tablespoons of hot water, stock, or milk (depending upon the dish) to the ground saffron, and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Add the bloomed saffron to whatever you’re cooking.
