Pushal Spanish Saffron 25 gr
$146.00As the world’s most expensive spice, saffron provides a beautiful golden color and pungent, aromatic flavor to foods. A labor-intensive crop, the three stigmas are handpicked from each flower, spread on trays, and dried over charcoal fires. Saffron threads should be crushed before using them in recipes.
Pushal saffron is a type of saffron that includes not only the red stigmas (like Negin and Sargol saffron) but also a small portion of the surrounding yellow style. It is of lower quality than Sargol saffron, but still considered as a premium quality. This type of saffron is less expensive than the purest grades of saffron, as it contains a lower concentration of the flavorful and aromatic compounds found in the red stigmas.
