Most Expensive Spice In The World
What is the most expensive spice in the world?
Saffron, It’s as easy as that.
Saffron (crocus sativus) comes from the dried stigmas of the purple saffron crocus and it takes up to 250,000 hand-picked flowers to make just one pound.
Saffron dates back to ancient Egypt and Rome where it served in perfume, dyes and food.
One pound of Saffron runs $400.00 - $800.00 USD, but in times past sold as high as $5,000.00/pound.
