SAFFRON (KESAR / केसर)

SAFFRON

“An epitome of abundance and richness, Saffron is the most expensive spice. It comes from the dried stigmas of the Crocus Sativus Linnaeus, or the Saffron rose. When the flower blooms, it forms only three vivid stigmas; we at Mewa Basket then handpick only the red threads of these flowers from Kashmir to bring you the most luxurious and fragrant Saffron. ”

USAGE

“Saffron is used as a flavouring agent or yellow food colouring in food or cooking. You can mix a pinch of it in either milk or water and pour it over your dum biryanis to add a tinge of royalty and luxury to your food. Kesar or Saffron is added to many Indian sweets and desserts as well. ”
