Saffron is one of the costliest spices in the world. But with its high price tag comes a richness of taste and smell. It also gives dishes a signature golden-yellow hue. 

Cuisines of India, Morocco, and Iran extensively use saffron to enhance the flavour of their dishes, while classic European dishes, such as Spain’s paella and France’s bouillabaisse also use this spice.

Chelo ba Tahdig, Shellfish Paella, and Risotto alla Milanese are examples of some of the exquisite dishes that are prepared using saffron.
