It is most expensive of spices!
Enormous necessary work with the harvest of the saffron justifies the high price of this product. It is necessary, indeed, to gather to a hundred and thousand flowers to obtain five kilos of marks which will give one kilo of dry saffron.
Aromatic pigment? Spices coloured? The saffron has these two qualities.
It accompanies very well the seafood, fish, the curries and aromatizes a large number of liquors.
