? Cyrus Saffron Gourmet pure Saffron: 100% Hand picked directly from natural land to your dish.
? About 150 saffron flowers produce 1 gram saffron. 225,000 saffron flowers produce about 1 pound superior saffron.
? Saffron is simply the king of spices and known as red gold. Saffron is harvested by hand on daily bases for about a month before sun light and heat burn the saffron stigma.
? Saffron is used in variety of Persian, Spanish, Italian and seafood dishes. It is growing in Khorasan, Aragon Spain, Greece, India and Turkey.
? The stigma is about 2 inches and our saffron has only the top portion of the stigma. For cooking infuse 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads into warm water and let sit for about 10 minutes. You will see the saffron color start releasing from the stigmas.
? 1 gram of saffron is enough to prepare a dish for 4 to 6 people. Saffron threads should always have the shape of a trumped. It should never loose its shape or color (thread turning white) once infused into water, otherwise its fake saffron. About Cyrus Saffron.
