🍴 Recommended Cooking Method

Saffron threads should never be added to a dish dry. To maximize their color and flavor:

1. Bloom the Saffron Crush the desired number of threads lightly using a mortar and pestle or the back of a spoon.

2. Steep Place the crushed threads in a small amount of hot liquid a few tablespoons of water broth or milk/cream depending on your recipe for about 15–20 minutes. The liquid will turn a rich golden-yellow.

3. Add to Dish Add the saffron-infused liquid including the threads to your recipe typically about halfway through the cooking process.

Pro-Tip For a typical Paella 4 servings you only need about 10-15 threads a pinch to achieve beautiful color and flavor!
