Golden and deeply aromatic, saffron is the world’s most luxurious spice. Just a few delicate threads release a warm, honey-like fragrance and transform dishes with their unmistakable colour and flavour, evoking the richness of Persian, Spanish, and Mediterranean cuisine.
This prized ingredient is hand-harvested from the crocus flower, making it one of the rarest and most precious spices in the world. Its convenience lies in its incredible potency: a pinch of saffron is enough to elevate an entire dish. Found in the heart of markets from Marrakech to Madrid, saffron is treasured in everything from paella and risottos to Persian tahdig and Indian biryanis. To enjoy it at its best, steep the threads in warm water, stock, or milk before adding to dishes, releasing their full colour and aroma.
Here are 10 delicious and authentic ways to use saffron:
Infuse into rice dishes like Spanish paella or Persian jewelled rice.
Stir into creamy risottos for depth and colour.
Add to bouillabaisse or fish stews for a rich golden hue.
Blend into a luxurious saffron yoghurt sauce for grilled meats.
Use in Indian biryani for authentic flavour.
Infuse milk for saffron-spiced ice cream or kulfi.
Add to custards or panna cotta for a subtle floral sweetness.
Make saffron tea or infuse with honey for a soothing drink.
Pair with lamb or chicken marinades for Middle Eastern dishes.
Brighten breads and pastries such as Swedish lussekatter (saffron buns).
Product tip: Always steep saffron in warm liquid rather than adding directly to hot pans – this releases the colour and aroma more evenly.
