SAEDNEWS: You have different methods for brewing saffron, and brewing saffron with ice is one of these methods. Depending on the brewing technique, you will naturally experience different colors and flavors. Here, we will explore this unique method of brewing saffron so you can fully appreciate all the flavors and benefits saffron has to offer.
According to SAEDNEWS, The delightful aroma of saffron is an inseparable part of various Persian sweets and stews. While saffron is also used in some international dishes, Iranians skillfully incorporate saffron into various syrups, beverages, and dishes. In most recipes, you will be asked to add some brewed saffron to the ingredients. Nowadays, some people opt for different saffron extracts or even saffron sprays. The important point is that natural saffron, in terms of longevity and quality, cannot be stored for a very long time, especially if it lacks proper storage and packaging conditions. Many of these products contain food coloring. If you're looking to experience the true aroma and flavor of saffron, it's best to take matters into your own hands and brew high-quality saffron in a completely natural and excellent way.
The initial steps are just like brewing saffron with boiling water, meaning you should first crush and grind the saffron well. Now, instead of using hot water, you will need a few ice cubes. Place the small pieces of ice in a glass container where you've placed the ground saffron. At this point, your task is complete; now let the ice melt at room temperature, following the same process that allows saffron to release its color more fully and effectively.
Interestingly, experiences from people who have used this method to brew saffron have shown that brewing saffron with ice makes the saffron brew both more fragrant and more vividly colored compared to the traditional boiling water method. Additionally, you can store this solution in a suitable, hygienic, sealed container in the freezer, and be assured that its color will not change.
1.When purchasing saffron, never buy crushed saffron or saffron tablets. High-quality saffron should be in thread form and red in color. By doing this, you can avoid purchasing counterfeit saffron and protect yourself from fraudulent sellers who sell impure or lower-quality saffron as premium. Therefore, buy saffron from brands that specialize in saffron, so that if you're dissatisfied, you can follow up and return the saffron you purchased.
2.Always store saffron in a vacuum-sealed or isolated container to preserve its aroma and flavor.
3.Store saffron threads in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.
4.Do not brew all of your saffron at once, and avoid storing saffron in the refrigerator or freezer for more than a week. Improper storage can cause saffron to lose its properties and become slimy. Therefore, brew only the amount of saffron you need at the time.
5.You can also brew saffron with tea and milk and enjoy it.
You can consume about one gram of saffron per day, and the recommended daily dosage of its tincture is approximately fifteen drops. In general, it is important to know that consuming 3 grams of saffron per month is very beneficial for most people. However, if you consume more than 5 grams, it can be harmful. In fact, consuming 5 grams of saffron all at once in one meal can even be fatal.
