Heat the water until just below boiling, around 90 degrees C.
Add the saffron threads to the hot water, or to a freshly brewed cup of black or green tea.
Let steep for 8 to 10 minutes, allowing the threads to release their colour and aroma.
Strain if using loose threads directly in water. Stir in honey or a slice of lemon to taste.
Serve warm.
“The simplest way to try saffron is also the oldest. Threads, warm water, a little patience.”
Sari Safran saffron is grown and hand harvested in Armenia, directly sourced and fully traceable. Between 170 and 190 threads per 0.5g. Deep red, potent, and consistent across every batch.
