Description of item
The process of harvesting Kashmiri saffron typically begins in late October or early November, when the flowers of the Crocus sativus plant bloom. The flowers are carefully picked by hand, as the delicate saffron threads are attached to the base of the flower's pistil. Each flower contains three red stigma or saffron threads, which are painstakingly separated from the flower by hand.
After the saffron threads have been harvested, they are placed on a flat surface, such as a tray or basket, to dry. This process is typically done in a dry, cool and dark environment to ensure that the saffron retains its flavor and aroma. In traditional harvesting methods, the saffron threads are then further processed by grinding them into a fine powder or infusing them in a liquid, such as milk or water, to create a saffron infusion.
At KONG POSH INDUSTRIES, we use a modern drying technique that uses a heated chamber to quickly dry the saffron threads, preserving their flavor and aroma. Once the saffron threads have been dried, they are carefully inspected and graded based on their color, flavor, and aroma. Only the finest quality saffron threads are selected for use in our products, while lower quality saffron is discarded or sold for use in other products.
To ensure that the saffron retains its quality and flavor, it is important to store it properly. As mentioned earlier, saffron must be protected from dampness and light to retain its properties longer. This means that saffron should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Additionally, saffron should be stored in an airtight container to prevent moisture and other contaminants from affecting its flavor and aroma.
In conclusion, the harvesting of Kashmiri saffron is a complex and delicate process that requires a great deal of care and attention to detail. At KONG POSH INDUSTRIES, we are committed to using only the finest quality saffron in our products, and we take great care to ensure that our saffron is harvested, dried, and stored properly to preserve its quality and flavor. By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your saffron retains its quality and flavor for years to come.
