You can smell the saffron before removing the stopper! We’ve had many compliments from those who have enjoyed using it in their cooking.
It makes a striking present, as it comes with a small cotton drawstring bag made for us by the Tahaddi sewing workshop in Beirut. We recommend infusing it in hot liquid or water for at least 15 minutes before using.
The jar also makes a great vase for snowdrops and early spring flowers!
Here are some recipes using this delicate spice:-
