| Norfolk saffron grower Dr Sally Francis tells the extraordinary story of saffron in England. |
Sally Francis describes the origins of saffron, how's it's cultivated and the saffron grower's calendar. There's an explanation of how its chemistry makes it special, and its uses in medicine, as a dye and as one of the most highly prized spices.
Tempting recipes include Haricots à la Grecque, Saffron Risotto, Norfolk Saffron Shortcake and Saffron Dingers.
"If you want to delve deeper, I recommend Sally Francis's Saffron. Francis is one of only two UK saffron producers and her book traces its history, as well as providing some recipes by fellow Norfolk dwellers including Tim Kinnaird's moorish gold, saffron and cardamom macarons." Catherine Phipps, The Guardian's Cookbooks of the Year

I've been buying this for a couple of years now as I make my own muesli. This is such a good mix as it's got a proper mix of grains, including rye which is often not included in other mixes, plus the flakes are good sized and not crushed or powdery. Highly recommend
Organic, wholemeal, locally grown and very tasty.
This is a great selection of beans which didn't have to travel thousands of miles to get to the UK. I wish I could buy more but both the sets and individual packets are unavailable.
They are amazing ingredient of my home made tapas. I never soak pulses to not allow fermentation, but those beans slow cooked really well within around 2.5 hours. I will definitely buy them again!
