Tips & Usage

With the aroma and rich flavor profile of Rumi Spice saffron, you only need a small pinch to infuse your favorite dishes with a bold world of flavor. For liquid recipes, steep the saffron in a few tablespoons of warm (not boiling) water. Let the threads soak for about 15 minutes and watch a golden hue begin to emerge. After the saffron is finished steeping, add it to the liquid in your favorite dishes like saffron rice, paella, saffron tea, or even saffron ice cream.

Another way to bring out the full flavor profile of saffron is to crush the threads using a mortar and pestle to a powder-like consistency. We suggest this for non-liquid recipes or baking, like when making saffron bread or cookies.

Heavenly Saffron

The Saffron Threads are very high quality, just the best – as are all the other products of Rumi Spice. Using the delicate saffron for tea, deserts, rice dishes, and more, I keep coming back to it over and over again for years now. It is so delicious, uplifting, balancing and mood lifting. I also give it as a gift to many friends and co-workers. Don't miss out on it. Thank you – Rumi Spice!
