At LuxeFood.co.uk, we work with the sargol part of the saffron crocus and thus offer you premium quality sargol saffron class 1. In our webshop you can choose from different packages, of 1g, 5g, 10g or 25g. If you regularly cook with saffron, you’ll benefit from purchasing a larger volume.
Saffron contains various substances to which it owes its specific taste, colour and aroma. The substance ‘picrocrocin’ provides the honey-like, somewhat bitter taste. ‘Safranal’ is responsible for the specific aroma, and ‘crocin’ for the golden yellow colour of saffron. Cheaper spices, such as turmeric or safflower, can also add a yellow colour to your dish. But no other spice can match the taste and aroma of saffron.

How to determine the saffron quality? You can buy saffron in the form of threads or as a powder. The saffron threads are often much more qualitative than the powder, and the composition of saffron powder is more difficult to verify. You only need a few saffron threads to give your dish a beautiful yellow colour and the typical saffron taste.
