Have you ever wondered what makes the rice yellow in color and gives Paella that special taste? Well, wonder no more, the key ingredient is Azafran. Azafran comes from the dried flower of Azafran and is considered one of the most luxurious spices of the world.
Spain is the production leader of Azafran which costs about 3 to 9 euros a gram and is looked as red gold. You need just a small dash to give food a little color and distinct taste.
