Although it is native to southwest Asia, saffron was first cultivated in Greece. Each crocus sativus bears up to four flowers, each containing three crimson stigmas. These stigmas are then dried and used in various cuisines as a coloring agent and as seasoning. There are 4,000 years of documentation illustrating the use of saffron medicinally.
Saffron has distinctive, penetrating flavors and aromas that can be used with rice, fish, and bread.
