The Valle del Crati saffron in stigmas is obtained from a selection of flowers of the highest quality, always harvested by hand using the same traditional method. Our saffron is produced with the annual cultivation technique: the harvest is carried out in the early hours of the morning to prevent the flower from suffering too much damage from weather conditions (rain, hail, wind) during a period from the second half of October to the first decade of November. The flower consists of 3 stigmas, each stigma has a red part that ends with a yellow part, which has no organoleptic properties (coloring, bittering, aromatic) and therefore no commercial value. How can you recognize high-quality Italian saffron in stigmas without adulteration? The stigmas are a bright red color and for each stigma, no white part should be visible, only the red-purple filament. The smell is unmistakable, and the taste should be delicate on the palate. Tips for using our Italian saffron in stigmas: Lightly crush the stigmas and infuse in a little warm water. The jar is designed to preserve its organoleptic properties longer. Add to the dish halfway through cooking and mix well. A quantity of 17 Italian saffron stigmas is sufficient for 1 person. Three ideas to try Saffron risotto Chicken strips with saffron Vegetable velouté with saffron Ingredients: Saffron. Contains no allergens.
