Eco Saffron 1g

Saffron from La Carrasca is grown at an ideal altitude, around 1000 meters above sea level. It is a rainfed crop, which provides us with a lower production, but a saffron of very high quality. The proven climatic conditions of our area, reaching temperatures of -15º in winter and 40º in summer, increase the thermal stress that saffron can withstand. This avoids fungi and other problems that arise in other areas, and favors the concentration of saffron components, making it unique. ORGANIC, GLUTEN-FREE, NO ADDED SUGARS, BIO, VEGAN Certified by: ES-ECO-006-AR Agriculture EU Targeted to: All people who wish to consume a traditional, natural, organic (without preservatives or colorants), and high-quality spice. Interesting facts: Saffron is characterized by its bitter taste and aroma; these come from its chemical components picrocrocin and safranal. It also contains a carotenoid dye called crocin, which gives food a golden yellow color. This makes it a valued ingredient in many dishes worldwide. In Spain, it is used as an essential component of paellas, as well as in the preparation of rice dishes, meats, and seafood. It also has applications in medicine.
