Crocus albiflorus - violette

Saffron is the most luxurious spice you can use in the kitchen. It has a unique aroma, taste and a strong natural color. These are dried stalks ("sticks") located in the middle of a crocus flower (also "saffron").

 

There are only two to three such heads in each flower, so to obtain 1 kg of this most expensive spice in the world, it is necessary to harvest and manually process approximately 150,000 crocus flowers.
