## Description

Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron (Kesar) represents one of the most treasured culinary spices in the world. Known as the “golden spice,” saffron has been valued for thousands of years for its remarkable aroma, vibrant colour and complex flavour profile. The saffron threads in this product are sourced from Spain, particularly the renowned La Mancha region, which is internationally recognized for producing some of the finest saffron available. La Mancha saffron is distinguished by its exceptional quality and controlled production methods. The region’s unique climate, mineral-rich soil and traditional harvesting practices create the perfect conditions for cultivating saffron crocus flowers. Each autumn, the purple flowers bloom for only a short period, during which farmers must carefully harvest them by hand. Inside each flower are three delicate red stigmas, which are the threads that become saffron. The harvesting process is extremely labour-intensive. Farmers must gently separate the fragile stigmas from each flower before drying them carefully to preserve their aromatic compounds and colour pigments. Because each flower yields only a tiny amount of usable spice, it takes approximately 150,000 flowers to produce a single kilogram of saffron. This painstaking process is one of the reasons saffron is considered the most valuable spice in the world. Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron features Grade A+ quality threads, meaning only the most vibrant red stigmas are selected. High-quality saffron is distinguished by its deep crimson colour, intense aroma and minimal yellow style. The red portion of the stigma contains the highest concentration of aromatic and colouring compounds, which is why premium saffron focuses on these sections. One of the defining characteristics of superior saffron is its colouring strength. When steeped in warm liquid, these threads release a vivid golden hue that transforms dishes visually as well as flavourfully. This colour comes from crocin, a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment that dissolves easily in water and imparts a brilliant golden shade to foods such as rice, sauces and desserts. High crocin levels are a hallmark of quality saffron and indicate strong colouring ability. Another important quality component is aroma. The distinctive fragrance of saffron comes primarily from safranal, a compound that forms during the drying process. This aromatic molecule gives saffron its characteristic warm, honey-like scent with floral and hay-like notes. Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron is carefully dried to preserve these volatile aromatic compounds, ensuring that the threads release their full fragrance when used in cooking. Taste is equally important. Premium saffron offers a subtle balance of sweetness, bitterness and earthy undertones that enrich dishes without overpowering them. Rather than dominating the flavour of a recipe, saffron enhances other ingredients, adding depth and complexity to both savoury and sweet preparations. Purity is another hallmark of this saffron. The product contains 100% natural saffron threads with no additives, artificial colouring or fillers. Because saffron is often subject to adulteration in the global spice trade, maintaining thread integrity is essential for ensuring authenticity. Whole threads are much easier to verify visually and deliver superior flavour compared to powdered saffron. The versatility of saffron makes it an essential ingredient in many culinary traditions around the world. In Spanish cuisine, it is a key component of paella, where it gives the rice its distinctive golden colour and aromatic depth. In Middle Eastern and South Asian cooking, saffron is commonly used in biryani, pilaf, sweets and milk-based desserts. European cuisines incorporate saffron into risotto, bouillabaisse and festive breads. Despite its reputation as a luxury ingredient, saffron is used in very small quantities. Just a few threads are enough to flavour an entire dish. When soaked briefly in warm water, milk or broth before cooking, the threads release their colour and aroma efficiently, allowing cooks to achieve maximum flavour from minimal amounts. Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron is also valued for its quality preservation. The delicate threads are packaged carefully to protect them from light, moisture and air exposure, which can degrade the aromatic compounds over time. Proper storage ensures that the saffron maintains its potency, colour and fragrance for extended periods. Beyond culinary use, saffron has historically been prized for its natural compounds and cultural significance. Throughout history it has been used in perfumes, dyes and traditional herbal preparations. Its vibrant colour has symbolized wealth and celebration in many cultures. For chefs and home cooks alike, Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron offers a reliable way to achieve authentic flavour and colour in premium dishes. Its strong aroma, vivid colour and pure composition make it a trusted ingredient for creating restaurant-quality meals at home. In every thread of Taj Mahal Spanish Saffron lies centuries of tradition, craftsmanship and natural excellence. From the carefully harvested crocus flowers of Spain to the final sealed package, this saffron represents the finest qualities of one of the world’s most celebrated spices. RECIPE: Authentic Saffron Milk (Kesar Milk) - Ingredients > • 250 ml warm milk • 6–8 saffron threads • 1 tsp sugar or honey • pinch cardamom.
