| 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

Absolutely love these black lentils from France. Very nutritious. Disappointed they are no longer in stock
We made two batches today one with 100% Flanders flour and the other with 2/3 Flanders to 1/3 White Spelt. We made large rolls (or cobs as we call them) and small loaves. The 100% Flanders was a little more rustic and very tasty. We feel the 2/3 to 1/3 makes a really good all purpose bread. We will be buying more!
Thank you, it was a present for my daughter at christmas. Her husband bought her a dutch oven so she could bake bread for herself as she is unable to tolerate shop bought bread. Shes done the feeding as per the sheet fingers crossed it all goes fine.
Great product! Really tasty! Love the red ones!
I bought this as a Xmas present for my daughter's Vegan boyfriend and he was delighted with it. He opened the box early as he's away for Xmas. The box was nicely wrapped .I loved the fact that these are all British grown. The individual packaging is cool too.
