The new 2020 crop saffron, grown by Dr Sally Francis of Norfolk Saffron at Burnham Market in North Norfolk, is now in! |
Norfolk Saffron's super strength saffron is amazing in sweet and savoury dishes. As a category I saffron, it goes much further than you might expect,. One jar will make 12 portions of saffron risotto.
This saffron was harvested in October / November 2020. It's yet to be graded but last year's crop had a colouring strength of 277.9 (category I), measured under the international ISO 3632 standard. Only the finest saffron samples in the world achieve category I with a colouring strength over 250, indicating high levels of crocin, picrocrocin and safranal, and so high colouring potential and strength of flavour.
Take the required amount of saffron (see below), crumble or grind it and then infuse it in a liquid suitable for your recipe (water, stock or milk) for at least 20 mins, or overnight. This is important to get the maximum colour, flavour and aroma from the saffron. Add the saffron infusion into your recipe.
Saffron quantities for cooking are measured in grams, pinches, or numbers of threads. Assuming you don't have laboratory scales in your kitchen, by far the best way to get accurate results is to count of the number of threads required.
A saffron flower contains three joined threads, but for our advice below, quantities refer to single separated threads. A 0.3g jar of Norfolk Saffron typically contains over 100 threads.
Here are Norfolk Saffron's suggestions for cooking with their saffron*:
