What is super negin saffron?

Super Negin Saffron contains long and thick stigmas that represent the longest stigma and the most beautiful saffron. In the following, we introduce various aspects of Super Negin Iranian Saffron.
Super Negin is the highest quality and most expensive saffron variety and places high demands on uniformly flat and thick stigmas.
100 kg of saffron flowers yield about 1 kg of super negin saffron.
Habitat ecology, saffron bulb quality, care, harvesting, optimal peeling methods and drying techniques play an important role in Super negin production.
Super Negin is mainly exported from Iran in recent years due to its quality and appearance. East Asian countries, the Persian Gulf countries and even the United States have already achieved the highest demand.
Super Negin has the highest colouring strength of all saffron varieties at 240-290 units. Therefore, making Super Negin Saffron requires more effort, time and craftsmanship than other types of saffron.
As a result, European consumers were less interested in purchasing Super Negin, but it became more popular among consumers. They tend to use more organic and natural saffron varieties like Poushali and La Mancha.
Super negin grade saffron is a highly sought-after spice that is grown and harvested in Iran. The spice is known for its distinctive deep red color, as well as its unique, complex flavor profile. One of the key physical characteristics of super negin grade saffron is its deep red color.
his color is a result of the high concentration of crocin, a compound that is responsible for the spice’s characteristic color and flavor. Additionally, super negin grade saffron is known for its long, thin strands, which are typically about 6-8 centimeters in length.
Saffron threads are the stigma of the Crocus sativus plant. Since each flower produces just three of these stigma, saffron harvesting is done by hand and is labor intensive. It is therefore a pricey spice. Fortunately it is potent and is typically used in very small quantities.
Saffron threads are often ground or crushed before being added to a dish. Some popular dishes that use saffron include paella, bouillabaisse, and risotto Milanese. In addition to these traditional dishes, saffron is also used in a variety of cuisines around the world, including Indian, Persian, and Moroccan cuisine.
When looking for quality saffron, it is important to look for deep red strands that are long and thin, and to avoid saffron that is brittle or has a yellow color.
