Rumi Spice saffron packs big flavor in just a small pinch. 1 gram is enough for 74 dishes of paella, and you'll only need 8-12 threads when cooking rice or risotto. It's that potent. Warm, nuanced, and a little sweet, use it to add deep flavor and bright colour to your dishes.
Rumi brings ethically sourced spices from Afghanistan in order to boost rural economic development and bring new jobs to Afghan farmers.
