Saffron is not only for special occasions. With just a few strands, you can add a luxurious golden colour,
rich aroma, and delicate flavour to many everyday drinks and dishes. Saffronnette Red Gold makes it easy
to enjoy premium Iranian saffron at home.
Saffron tea
Add 4–5 saffron strands to one cup of warm water or tea. Let it soak for 20–30 minutes until the colour
turns golden. This is one of the simplest ways to enjoy saffron.
Saffron milk
Saffron pairs beautifully with milk. Add a few strands to warm milk and allow it to release its colour
and aroma. You can also add it to milk-based desserts for a premium flavour.
Saffron rice
Saffron is perfect for rice dishes. Soak the strands first, then pour the saffron liquid over cooked
rice or mix it into your recipe. It adds a beautiful golden colour and a special aroma.
Saffron desserts
You can use saffron in desserts such as puddings, custards, cakes, and traditional sweets. A small
amount can give desserts a warm colour and elegant fragrance.
Saffron in juices and drinks
Saffron can also be used in juices and other drinks. For around 500 ml of liquid, use approximately
7–8 saffron strands and allow it to soak before drinking.
Use the blooming method first
For the best result, soak saffron before adding it to food or drinks. This method helps release the
colour, aroma, and flavour more fully. You can also crush the strands gently with a mortar and pestle
before soaking.
Final thoughts
Saffron is simple to use when prepared correctly. From tea and milk to rice and desserts, a few strands
of Saffronnette Red Gold can bring colour, aroma, and luxury into your everyday routine.
