Serotonin is an important neurotransmitter that contributes to the feeling of “happiness”. In fact it is also known as the “good mood hormone”. One of the lesser known properties of saffron is precisely that of\u00a0promoting the increase in serotonin levels … This is\u00a0possible thanks to the fact that saffron is rich in\u00a0carotenoids and B vitamins, which have the particularity of helping the increased serotonin level.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Saffron is also attributed, by oriental tradition and by\u00a0nutritionists, to slimming properties (reduces the\u00a0sense of hunger), draining, detoxifying, calming, analgesic (especially of menstrual pain), aphrodisiac\u00a0properties.<\/p>\n

Saffron is considered the most expensive spice in the world and in fact it is called “the red gold”. On the other hand, it can be grown only and all by hand. To obtain a kilogram of pistils, a minimum of 600 working days per\u00a0year are required and an average of 160,000 flowers and\u00a0480,000 pistils. But on the other hand, with first-class\u00a0saffron you need 7\/8 pistils for each dose (person) and\u00a0since in 1 gram of saffron there are on average 480 pistils,\u00a0with 1 gram of pistils you can cook dishes for 60 people.<\/p>\n
The cost per portion is thus reduced to 30\/40 cents of\u00a0euro cents. And saffron, if well packaged and preserved,\u00a0maintains its organoleptic characteristics for many years.<\/p>\n
On closer inspection, saffron is not that expensive!<\/p>\n

Always store saffron at room temperature,\u00a0in a tightly closed jar and, above all,\u00a0always in the dark. So it will keep for years, at least 4 years. But it has been\u00a0shown that saffron, if well preserved, can be consumed even after 20 years.<\/p>\n

Prelevare dalla confezione con delle pinzette 30 pistilli ca. (per 4 persone) e immergerli in ca. 300 ml. di acqua tiepida (o latte nel caso di dolci).<\/p>\n
Lasciarli a riposo per un tempo minimo di 2 e un massimo di 12 ore. Scolare i pistilli e lasciarli a riposo su un piano di marmo. Utilizzare i 300 ml di acqua (o latte) di scolo dei pistilli per cucinare la pietanza. Per non far cuocere e rovinare i pistilli, dopo averli sminuzzati con una mezzaluna, aggiungerli alla pietanza bollente solo gli ultimi 2 o 3 minuti di cottura, preoccupandosi di\u00a0girare sempre la pietanza.<\/p>\n
