        Saffron.

        Saffron has been highly prized for over 4000 years as a flavouring & colourant. It originates from Persia & India & was introduced into Europe by the Crusaders, the centres of cultivation were Valencia ( Spain ), Nuremberg ( Germany ) & Saffron Walden ( U.K. ).Today it is mainly grown in Azerbaijan, Iran, Kashmir & Spain.

        Saffron is the most precious and expensive spice in the world. The saffron threads are the dried stigmas of the saffron flower, ( Crocus sativus ) . Each flower contains only three stigmas. These threads must be picked by hand and approximately 150,000 & 400 hours work of these flowers are needed to produce 1 Kg of saffron filament.

        Flavour: A pungent, bitter-sweet herb.
