There a lot I can tell you about saffron. There's a lot you may have heard before. How it is the world's most expensive spice. How it comes from a small flower. How hard it is to harvest or how few threads come from each bloom. Then there's the different kinds: Spanish, Indian, Kashmiri and Iranian. I could write a great deal about how to judge it's quality. What you should look for and how you should NEVER buy it in a grocery store. In the grocery store it is low quality and extremely expensive. I could also tell you how volatile the price can be, in fact recently it seems to have doubled.
