davew Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I can add a little here about saffron This link https://www.buywholefoodsonline.co.uk/saffron The first is Greek, I have this in strand and powder form, very dark and quality is tip top, very expensive thou, and £7.50 is a fair price I have used it, a little is loads, and powder is in sweets and jellies etc, or however you want, be careful thou its really strung taste as ground, so less is required Very strong flavor and colour is one of the best in the world The second is Spanish, bread and butter or the best saffron around, where I live its £3 or I cant remember for 4 or 8 GMS, I will check Great, easy doe sit all world-class, very popular in Indian/Asian cooking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Monkey Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I have (had not sure if they are reopening) a guy who has a stall in our indoor market who sells all types of spices and blends. He is reasonably priced and will package any amount for you. He also will make a blend/rub up if you ask him to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are what I use, one box per spice and label and date the box so you know when old Spices do go off the boil, so toast them a little, crush, blend grind etc to get them going again, never quite as strong i find when older 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
