Description
Originating from the Middle East, saffron also goes by the botanical name of crocus sativus linnaeus. It is during its flowering, which lasts only 2 or 3 weeks, that the crocus is harvested with care. A lot of gentleness, delicacy, and patience are required to pick these ephemeral flowers. Then comes the emondage phase, where women carefully remove the pistils from the flowers, keeping, with a precise and ancestral gesture, the most aromatic part.
Saffron is an exceptional spice that deserves a place to elevate your dishes! In powder form, it allows you to enjoy its full aromatic richness and simplifies its use. Saffron will enhance your dishes by adding a touch of finesse and exceptionality. It’s a choice spice that pairs wonderfully with rice, white meat, fish and seafood, as well as your sauces. It will perfectly accompany a risotto, bouillabaisse, scallops or paella. Its flavors will delicately highlight the aromas of your dishes.
