Ahead of very delicious video recipe we’re releasing tomorrow evening, we thought we’d do a deep dive into one of the star ingredients: saffron! One of the world’s most precious spices, the elusive threadlike stigmas are literally the stuff of legends! The spice originates from a flower called ‘crocus sativus,’ or commonly known as the saffron crocus.’ It’s believed that saffron originated and was first cultivated in Greece, but today it is primarily grown in Iran, Greece, ...Morocco, and India. As for taste, we hate to say it, but you know it when you taste it. Saffron is extremely subtle and fragrant, with a slightly sweet and luxurious taste. There’s truly nothing like it! The one thing most people know about saffron is that it is pricey. But, that’s for good reason each flower only produces three (!) threads of saffron, and it blooms for only one week each year. The saffron must be hand-harvested in the mid-morning when the flowers are still closed from their sleep. This ensures that the delicate stigmas inside are protected. After the labour-intensive process, it takes about 1,000 flowers to produce just one ounce of saffron. There’s no substitute for the real deal! When it comes to storing your saffron, you have options. Keep the threads in a cool, dry, dark place, or put it in the freezer for up to a year. If you make saffron water (instructions below), you can store it in an airtight container for up to three weeks in the fridge. For many recipe applications, simply grind 2 tsp saffron threads with a pinch of coarse salt to a powder with a mortar and pestle. This will draw out the most flavour and colour! Add cup of warm water and let it cool. You can add this to your paella, buttery saffron rice, and a host of Middle Eastern and Moroccan dishes! Stay tuned for tomorrow’s recipe. If you want a hint, think shellfish! Photos by Alex Lau.

The Nuñez de Prado family in Andalusia, Spain, takes olive oil seriously. Seven generations of the family have dedicated their lives to the production of an extraordinary olive oil, and the family's mill still crushes olives in the ancient way - under true granite stones. The family owns four different estates, housing a whopping 100,000+ olive trees - none of which are fertilized or sprayed with pesticides!). The process of production is tedious, but worth the effort. The o...il is gathered after the olives are crushed, but before they're pressed between mats. Only the oil that flows through with gravity is bottled in its unfiltered form. The oil has an incredibly low oleic acitiy of 0.1% - that's ten times lower than required to be labeled Extra Virgin! The name, Flor de Aceite, means 'flower of the oil,' and is derived from the many savory senses of smell and taste concentrated within it. It's a unique combination of spicy, peppery fruit flavours, a hint of grassiness, and a tinge of almond and butter. Thank you to our customer Kirsten Emdall Struck for sending us her own wonderful photos of the Nuñez de Prado facility from her family trip to Andalusia last year!
