Preparation and Usage
You
usually need just a little saffron. If using a cooking liquid - stock, wine, water - add the saffron to it and warm gently to infuse the colour and fragrance. Otherwise grind the saffron with any spices you are using, or crumble directly into the dish. Saffron's special flavour can be enhanced by toasting in a dry pan. This should be done over a moderate heat and with great vigilance, as the saffron can easily burn. |

Good Quality Saffron
This tends to be my favourite saffron from Ocado. Rich flavour & a little goes a long way.
fantastic
Third time buying this fragrant saffron ! Love it in risotto Milanese and paella a pinch goes a long way ! Excellent quality / price
not sure
Bought this as it was the best value for me as someone who doesnt use any saffron in cooking- i used it for the first time in paella but found it to have a strong metallic fragrance when mixing with hot stock to bloom. not sure if this is what saffron is meant to taste like but i dont think ill be trying this brand again
Excellent quality
Great saffron, with strong flavour and plenty in box. Box is tricky to open at first, but lid seems to loosen slightly with use. Will buy again.
Great flavour
This saffron is excellent for both sweet and savoury dishes. It gives good colour and flavour
