Saffron — Persian Premium Grade 1 Gourmet


$ 6.00
Minus Plus

The world’s most luxurious spice, rich in color and flavor.

This Grade 1 Negin Cut saffron, grown in western Afghanistan, features thick threads and a deep red hue. It’s perfect for Middle Eastern and Indian dishes or as the essential touch in authentic paella. Just 20 threads can transform your recipe with saffron’s distinctive aroma and flavor. Click here for a tutorial on saffron. 

Why is saffron expensive?

Each saffron flower produces three stigmas. The stigmas are hand-harvested, and over 150 flowers are needed for each gram of dried saffron! Saffron is common in Middle Eastern and Indian cooking, and you can't make paella without it! Tip: As seen in our Saffron TikTok, you can steep saffron in ice.

Details: In western Afghanistan, Saffron threads are hand-harvested from organically grown, non-GMO crocus flowers.
