Post saffron for Asian cooking

kashmiri saffron is one of the important ingredient because of its coloring capacity and aroma, saffron which has decent coloring capabilities and has a pleasant aroma is quality saffron.

Saffron's coloring capabilities come from the red portion of the saffron threads so good quality saffron can be defined as saffron which is dark red in color with a decent earthy aroma

So when you open our saffron container what you should smell is the earthy aroma of saffron and only dark red saffron thread no yellow or violet plant parts mixed with it.
