A Tiny Pinch for Golden Colour, Extraordinary Aroma and Distinctive Flavour

Few ingredients prove the phrase “a little goes a long way” quite like Saffron.

SpicenEasy Saffron 1g contains whole Crocus sativus saffron threads, prized for their distinctive aroma, complex floral-earthy flavour and ability to colour food a beautiful golden yellow.

You only need a small pinch.

Bloom the threads in warm water, milk or stock, then add both the liquid and the Saffron to biryani, paella, risotto, Persian rice, sauces, desserts or milk-based drinks.

Used correctly, Saffron isn't simply a colour.

It gives the entire dish an unmistakable aroma and character.

Saffron Recipe

 Persian Saffron Rice (Tahdig)

 Authentic Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups basmati rice

  • 1/4 tsp saffron threads (soaked in 2 tbsp hot water)

  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt (for crust)

  • 3 tbsp butter/ghee

  • 1 tbsp rosewater (optional)

  • Salt to taste

Key Steps:

  1. Bloom saffron: Crush threads + steep in hot water (15 mins)

  2. Parboil rice → mix yogurt + 1/3 rice + saffron water

  3. Layer: Buttered pot → yogurt-rice → remaining rice

  4. Steam 45 mins on low → flip for golden crust

Pro Technique:

  • Use ice cube trick: 2 ice cubes on rice before steaming for extra crispiness

 Why Saffron Reigns:

  1. Color alchemy: 1 thread can tint 1 cup liquid sunshine-yellow

  2. Flavor paradox: Earthy yet floral (from safranal compound)

  3. Status symbol: More expensive per gram than gold (Harvested from 150,000 flowers/lb)

Serving Ritual:
 Garnish with barberries + pistachios → serve with skewered kebabs

 Other Top Saffron Recipes:

  1. Spanish Paella (bomba rice + seafood)

  2. Italian Risotto Milanese (bone marrow + Parmesan)

  3. Swedish Lussekatter (saffron buns for Lucia Day)

Storage Hack:

  • Keep in freezer with silica packet (lasts 5+ years)

    With current delivery delays we thought we'd be waiting weeks but we got it within days (around Christmas time too). Plus we wondered if the (comparatively!) modest price meant poorer quality but we are extremely satisfied. Great experience all round. Thanks Vibha.
