Hello friends. In this post, I want to introduce you to how to brew saffron.

As you know, Iranian saffron is one of the best saffron in the world.

In the eastern and northeastern part of Iran, there is a province called Khorasan, where saffron is the best saffron.

Saffron is the flag in the middle of the flower that is picked in the early morning before the sun shines on them.

Saffron is also called red gold.

In the shops that sell saffron, there are boxes that when they want to close the shop, they put the saffron in the box and then close the shop. (like goldsmiths)

To brew saffron, we first pour saffron into a container called a mortar and pound them with the handle of the mortar. Sometimes saffron is mixed with a sugar cube. In any case, it should be powdered.

Pour the powdered saffron into a glass or a small teapot for brewing saffron and pour some boiling water on it. The water should not be too much. The amount of water depends on the amount of saffron. They pour a little water so that it becomes very colorful after brewing.

After pouring boiling water on the saffron, we put the container in the pot and put it on the boiling kettle or samovar to infuse. (like brewing tea).

After it has brewed, we can pour it on rice and make it colorful and fragrant.

Saffron has a special place in Iranian cuisine.

Saffron is definitely used in parties in all Iranian homes.

Using saffron in food is considered a form of respect and giving importance to the guest.

If you have never used Iranian saffron, you must try it, you will surely be amazed by its aroma.
