Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads
I usually cook by adding saffron to many stews and I like the taste and colour they add.This is a particular saffron because of the way that it is not powder and they are saffron threads.The taste is lovely and you don't need to add a big amount when you cook. I like that they are not additive added, it is very nice saffron and I recommend it.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Delicious and costly.
Being the most expensive spice in the world, this is my first encounter with it, so I didn't know what to expect in flavour, and definitely don't know how to distinguish good saffron. That said, after looking through some recipes, I gave it a shot to try cooking with it and the results were fabulous. The food had a nice fragrance to it. I didn't use a lot as I wasn't sure, and that turns out to be great, as the mellow flavour was very nice.I've not tried to use this in baking, but I assume that would work out great as well since the flavour is there and will definitely enhance the likes of bread and other baked goods.£5.95 isn't cheap for a single gram of the most expensive spice, but it is definitely worth trying.Each strand is intact, which I guess is a good sign of quality. There are cheaper variations when looking only, but I don't know if they can compare in quality, so I'm happy with this. It's better to get good quality if you're paying the price so that you can enjoy, so I would say this was a good experience.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Super saffron
We use this in rice dishes.Tonight, a quick pinch in boiled long grain rice, with some frozen veggies. The saffron turns the water yellow, which the rice then soaked up.A perfect accompaniment to curry.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Excellent quality
This saffron is excellent quality and very good value.  The strands are thick, and rich in both flavour and colour. A little really does go a long way; just two or three strands of this saffron are sufficient to add real depth of flavour to a dish.I use saffron in Moroccan tagine recipes and in saffron rice. I have been disappointed with some of the saffron I have previously bought. However, this saffron is wonderful; the saffron rice I have made using it was truly fragrant and delicious.

This is great quality saffron and you don't need much to flavour a dish. It is an expensive spice, but this is a decent price and good quality. Would recommend.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Incredible flavour and incredible price
I'm not being funny when I say incredible price.  We all know that saffron is incredibly expensive.  But you get 1 gram in this pack for this price.  My local supermarket only sells it in jars with half the amount for just about the same price as this.Now using saffron is a treat, I put it in a glass of warm water to release the colour and then add it to rice.  It gives rice a rich, orange/yellow glow.  And a it imparts a slight flavour.  You can't replicate it with turmeric.Just remember, use it sparingly, follow the storage instructions and you can't go wrong.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Interesting
Having never (knowingly) had Saffron I was very curious to see what the worlds most expensive spice tasted like. I won't pretend I'm an expert so I can't validate any real or not claims but I did follow the same method as others have here and my test came out the same, so I can assume it's the real thing.I wasn't quite sure what to do with it, but having seen a picture with it on Ice cream, I thought I'd try that, so I put a few strands on some Vanilla ice cream and to my surprise, it gave a very nice flavour, very feint but it was there and it enhanced the ice cream that I'll be using it on that every time I have a bowl . I've tried it with some more savoury meals but if I am to be honest, I didn't notice too much difference. I perhaps didn't apply too much, but that this price point you wouldn't want to.So, would I recommend it? Yes, but only if it is within your means, but it does make a great addition for when you have guests around. At £5.99 it's not going to break the bank and it's great for a little treat, but it isn't something I would buy a huge amount of nor use all the time. I am very happy to have tried it though and really did enjoy it.

Sara Saffron Highest Grade A+, 100% Authentic Saffron Threads, Good quality
There is a big difference between a quality saffron and those that are not. This one is good quality and gives a great flavour. It is stored in a sealed plastic bag which comes in a sort of cardboard envelope with an opening to see the product. It smells good when you open it.
