AGNÈS's
SAFFRON

Producer of saffron for more than 15 years on my farm near Richelieu in Touraine, I suggest you discovering this culture. The saffron is the only spice produced in France. We obtain it from the pistil of the flower of the crocus sativus.

AGNÈS DEVIJVER

The saffron will give you the maximum of flavour in the year which follows its harvest, that is why I propose you in the sale a vintage saffron stemming from the last harvest. The saffron must be preserved in a dry place and shielded from the light.
>> Our most

Use in cooking:

- 1 pistil corresponding to 3 stigmas of saffron a person for sweet recipes.
- 2 pistils corresponding to 6 stigmas of saffron a person for salty recipes.

The saffron does not like the intense cooking which destroys its aromatic molecules. It is thus preferable to make it infuse before the preparation of the dish and to incorporate it at the end of cooking. Your dishes will take a beautiful yellow color and an incomparable taste.

 

My flowers of saffron are cultivated in a natural way in the environmental protection. They do not receive either fertilizer or phytosanitary products. The biggest care is brought to every stage of the production of the saffron, since the harvest until the packaging.
