At the table with Lucie Kitchen Hacks, From the sea: Salt
No other spice is as precious and sought-after as saffron. The red threads, which are obtained from the dried stigmas of the saffron crocus, have to be painstakingly harvested by hand. Saffron is much more than a culinary treasure - it has a long cultural tradition in the Orient. The ‘red gold’ not only gives dishes a bright golden colour and an unmistakable aroma, but is also valued as a remedy in traditional medicine. The German-French chef Lucie shows how to prepare an Ayurvedic golden milk with saffron, which is known for its beneficial and anti-inflammatory effects. She also reveals how to recognise high-quality saffron and how to spot fakes.
