Hi @Nek_F ,

Thank you for this picture. I do agree with you that saffron is a very powerful flower. It has a great colour, perfect for stunning pictures, but also a great value if you want to give taste and personality to some dishes.

I have started using it lately and it’s value is truly like gold in every sense.
