How to Use the Powder

Powder dissolves instantly in warm water, milk, broth or oil. No need to bloom. Whisk a generous pinch into 30ml of warm liquid and stir into the dish at the end of cooking for the most even colour.

For Pastries & Desserts

Sift directly into dry ingredients. Pairs beautifully with cardamom, rose, vanilla and citrus zest.

Storage

Keep the lid sealed, in a cool dark cupboard. Use within nine months for the strongest aroma.

Ingredients & Allergens

Ingredients: 100% pure saffron (Crocus sativus stigmas). No additives, no colouring, no preservatives. Packed in a facility that also handles tree nuts (pistachio).

Safety & Disclaimer

Saffron is a culinary spice intended for use in normal food quantities. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication, consult your doctor before using saffron in concentrated amounts. Keep out of reach of young children. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition.

The Ritual

Powder is for speed. Use it with restraint.

A pinch of ground saffron equals two pinches of threads in colour. The trade-off is aroma: the powder gives strong colour with slightly less floral depth.

Sift directly into broths, custards, ice creams, and pastries. No blooming required.

Reach for threads when the dish is the saffron (rice, biryani). Reach for powder when the saffron is a finishing accent (sauces, desserts, syrups).
