Just a pinch, steeped in a little hot water, gives deep colour and flavour to soups and stews.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe world’s most expensive spice, but a little goes a long way. The cost comes from the labour involved, it is fiddly to harvest and needs lots of people and hours to do it. Saffron is the stigma of the saffron crocus (\u003cem\u003eCrocus sativus). \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePickers are looking for three tiny fragile stigmas inside each flower. They pluck them with tweezers. Very gently, of course. In our experience, Spanish Saffron is the most consistent and flavoursome, so we source ours from the home of Spanish saffron, Castilla-La Mancha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt takes 225,000 stigmas to compile a single pound of saffron.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Butcher's Dog","offers":[{"title":"1g","offer_id":54177137000812,"sku":"WF-TFO-045","price":11.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/4065\/3676\/files\/s450316545255245912_p965_i2_w1280.png?v=1785235682","url":"https:\/\/thebutchersdog.com.sg\/products\/belazu-saffron","provider":"The Butcher's Dog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
