Details

Add a tantalizing flavor and aroma to your signature dishes using Shank's Spanish saffron! This Spanish saffron comes in a bottle containing 25 grains, approximately 1.5 grams or .05 ounces. The grains have a stringy appearance and a vivid red color. Capable of being used in a variety of cooking and baking applications, Spanish saffron can be used to make bouillabaisse, paella, risotto, and other dishes. A common component of Indian, Asian, and European cuisine, saffron is a very pungent and strong spice, and a little is said to go a long way. Steep the saffron in broth or hot water before you add it to your recipe to attain the strongest flavoring.

Shank's Extracts, Inc. was founded in 1899, initially creating flavorings to help make medicines taste better. Expanding their company and label through the years, their flavors, extracts, and food colorings are sold in major grocery chains across the Northeastern and Midwestern U.S. Today, they continue to make quality products for both retail and industrial applications.

Shank's Spanish Saffron from webstaurant is a good find. Im excited to use Saffron for spanish dishes such as chicken with rice, spanish rice and paella. I started seeing alot of higher end restaurant using ridiculous amounts of saffron for garnishes aswell.

Best Spanish Saffron I've found for the money. Beautiful strands of Saffron and lovely aroma. The most you will ever need is 10 strands of saffron. Yes, that TEN strands. Then again, if saffron is the predominant flavour in you dish. If it isn't, just go with 5 strands Another win for Webstraunt.

Beautiful aroma! I use them for all Indian traditional sweets. When soaked in hot milk, this gives a very nice saffron color and aroma. Adds an extra touch to many Indian traditional rice dishes as well.

Seriously, where are you going to buy any amount of saffron for under five bucks. It is the most expensive spice in the world after all. This package contains enough saffron for numerous uses. Usually we use it to add a delicate flavor and aroma to rice dishes, but we also use it in eggs and seafood. A small pinch will also add a beautiful yellow-orange color to your dish as well. If you've ever wanted to try saffron, get this. You will like it.

This saffron is cheap but not great quality. Needs twice the amount called for in a recipe to flavor it. So on a cost per use basis it's not as good a deal as it may appear.

Thank you for the review! We’re sorry this saffron is not working for your needs. Take a look at our other Bulk Herbs and Spices for more options.

Not an experienced user of saffron, but smells nice and I used it in some rice dishes. Can't really complain with the price.

Not that great of a quality product. Didn't work well in the kitchen. Price is high but that's what it is for saffron. I would definitely not purchase this again, it did not stain the rice at all.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear this saffron didn't work out for you. We've not had the issue of not staining the rice before, but one possibility is storage. We're not saying this was your issue, but good advice for others reading this is that It is very important to make sure the seal is airtight and the saffron is not exposed to light. Thanks again for the review!

Haven't used this yet but I am psyched from the price alone. When received it was packaged thoughtfully and pungent smelling. Paella here I come!

I love saffron when baking and in rice. This is excellent quality. Was not sure when the quantity was listed in grains however the package I received was more than what I get from the place where I usually purchase. Will buy again for sure.

Great quality for the price. The tight fitting lid is a plus as the threads can be stored in the container. Have had no issues with keeping its freshness. Will definitely buy again.

Decent quality saffron. The price is pretty good too. It's not the MOST aromatic saffron, but for the price you pay, it is a fair product

Excellent value for this saffron! We cannot make paella without it. It has that special heady aroma you can only get from real saffron. I highly recommend it.

Due to the high cost i had never purchased saffron before. At Webstaurants price i thought I would give it a try. WOW! I can not compare the flavor to any other product but the response to an old recipe at a dinner party was ecstatic when the only change made was adding this in....a convert for life!

We use saffron a lot in our dishes that we cook and I found buying it from this company was more cost efficient than purchasing from a grocery store!
