Why saffron is the world's most expensive spice. Harvesting saffron requires a lot of physical labor to get the flowers from the field to final packaging. The harvesting process plus its distinct flavor, smell, and color make it the most expensive spice in the world. It's used in kitchens across the world, as a fabric and skin dye, and may soon be used more widely for medicinal purposes. To harvest the saffron, you need a lot of hand works to pick up the flowers, separate — saffron is dehydrated or dry stigma. The stigma is the female part of flower. You have to separate that stigma, dry that. And for all of these procedures, you need hand works, laborers. Saffron comes from the saffron crocus flower. And each flower has three red stigmas — that's the saffron. The yield of saffron is really low. You have to hire a lot of laborers to harvest 4 pounds of saffron per acre. That’s nothing. #saffron#ariopol#advia#alliswell#saffron_flower #fao#chef#hardwork #savetheplanet #savewater #sustainable #agri #organic#agriculture #life#corona #covıd19 #health #bio #vegan#visitiran #persianfood ,#persianculture #azafrán #safron #healthylifestyle #antidepressants #luxury #smellssogood #best https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hwO-xBzIU/?igshid=17woshgdahh4v
