The whole saffron threads in a small glass tube are offered in a typical green Altes Gewürzamt tin as outer packaging. Only the highly aromatic and highly colored tips of the best aromatic saffron are used here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaffron is considered one of the most expensive spices in the world. Something mystical surrounds this yellow-coloring spice known from the Arabic, whose name derives from za'fraran - the yellow one. The saffron threads are obtained from Crocus sativus, a violet-flowering crocus species. From its stigmas, which are painstakingly picked individually by hand, this fine bitter-tart-spicy tasting spice is produced when dried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvesting can only take place once in autumn during flowering, for a few days. An experienced picker harvests 60-80g (undried) saffron threads per day. 200,000 blossoms are needed for one kilo of dried saffron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSaffron Threads – Ingo Holland recommends\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn most dishes, saffron is added as a broth. If the saffron threads are added at an early stage of cooking, they color better; at a later stage, they retain more aroma. Economical use of saffron threads prevents a bitter taste. Ideal for paella, in bouillabaisse, in risotto alla milanese, fish soups, stews, rice, but also for baking and in sweet dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAltes Gewürzamt – Spices without compromise\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIngo Holland wants to inspire cooking enthusiasts with his particularly intense spices from \"Altes Gewürzamt\" and encourage creative ideas. He makes no compromises when it comes to the quality of his ingredients, spices, peppers, herbs and salts. His exclusive spices, like the saffron threads, should be able to be used in many different ways, \"that's why I'm reluctant to give specific application instructions,\" says Ingo Holland in an interview with us. If you like to cook and smell the mixtures, you will certainly feel the same way we do, and ideas will come to mind as to which dish or which ingredients this mixture could taste particularly good with. The saffron threads retain their aroma best in the well-sealed, green Altes Gewürzamt spice tin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBe brave and try it out, but be careful: like all spices from Ingo Holland Altes Gewürzamt, the Saffron Coupé is intense, as it is of particularly good quality. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altes Gewürzamt Ingo Holland Gewürze","offers":[{"title":"1 g","offer_id":53071190163790,"sku":"047ING0045","price":11.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/1124\/5646\/files\/safran_coupe_holland5912e626325f9.jpg?v=1750979252","url":"https:\/\/nurgutes.eu\/en\/products\/ingo-holland-safran-faeden","provider":"nur Gutes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
