💥 Greek saffron is beautifully intense with many uses in gastronomy but also holds many health benefits known from ancient times.
A recent study showed it has been effective with treating depression. You can search for that on the web for more detailed & accurate information.
But saffron is no stranger to Scandinavians cuisines either as it is often used in baking lending doughs colour & pleasant aroma.
An expensive spice as all the labour must be carefully done by hand & because obviously one strand weighs almost nothing so the kilo price is veeeeeery high.
These days i’ve been making a warm brew adding lemon & honey-instead of coffee.
Would you like to see some recipes were saffron is used?
Have you ever had @krokoskozanis_greeksaffron to taste it’s unique & characteristic properties?

I wrote about that and about the soup that helped me heal plus a recipe for kreatosoupa (Greek meat soup) on Substack (link in bio).
🤧Gone.
