Frequently asked questions
Why is saffron so expensive?
Each flower has only three stigmas, which have to be picked and dried by hand. One gram of saffron takes about 150 flowers, making it the most labour-intensive spice in the world.
How can I tell I’m buying high-quality saffron?
Sargol grade contains only the upper, fully red part of the stigmas, with no yellow ends. Put a thread in lukewarm water: it slowly turns the water golden yellow while the thread itself stays red.
How do I use it?
Soak a few threads in a little warm water or milk for 10–20 minutes, then add them to your dish together with the liquid. Perfect for rice dishes, soups, baking and tea.
How should I store it?
In an airtight container in a dry, dark and cool place. Stored this way it keeps its aroma and colour for 2–3 years.
How will I receive my order?
We ship within 1–3 working days after payment. You can choose the shipping method and see the cost on the checkout page.
