In the standard glass jar for this brand, there is a black bag with a fastener, in which the threads of saffron, the most expensive spice in the world, are stored. If you pour them out of the bag, they fill the jar by only a few millimeters, I did not pour it out, and I keep it in a closed bag, I do not use saffron often and it is not difficult for me to take it out of the bag every time. This spice is a red thread extracted from the flowers of one of the crocus species. Crocus flowers contain yellow anthers and a yellow pistil, which ends with three orange-red stigmas 25-35 mm long, these stigmas are separated by hand from each flower, they do not have any smell, it appears only after the saffron is dried. The production of saffron is a very time-consuming process, almost everything is done by hand, which explains the high price of this spice.
