Pure Saffron 'Mancha' - Category I, Ground/Powder - 1 oz/28 gr, Spain.

Spanish Saffron is the most expensive spice in traditional rice and fish dishes. A few threads of saffron are sufficient to flavor and color several servings of rice or paella. Scandinavian recipes call for saffron in rolls and pastries. French, Spanish, and South American dishes often include saffron.

Powdered saffron must be protected from the light and moisture to maintain its quality, so consumers should store the spice in an airtight jar or moisture-resistant package out of direct light.
