one sexy spice

This is one sexy spice. It soothed Alexander the Great after battle, launched wars between nations, and one single thread was once said to calm melancholy and ignite passion.

Saffron is harvested from the fall-flowering plant Crocus Sativus, a member of the Iris family. The vibrant, red threads of this heavily sought after Middle Eastern spice have been used for more than 4,000 years to treat upwards of 90 illnesses in the Middle East and Asia, to nuance the creations of master perfumers, and to flavor culinary fare globally. It is regarded as one of the world’s finest culinary treasures.

Today in America, the cost of saffron ranges from $500 to $5,000 a pound making it the world’s most expensive spice by weight. Luckily, a small amount of saffron will lend a beautiful color and a delicate flavor to a variety of dishes — from soup to nuts.

How to Use Saffron

After taking pains to get some saffron, what can you do with it? The most classic use is rice dishes: risottos, pilafs, and paellas. A small pinch adds brilliant color, aroma, and flavor against bland grains. Desserts are another go-to, and saffron can tread anywhere vanilla does, such as custards and cookies. (The flavor profiles of the two are similar: sweet, heady, and musky.) Saffron takes best to light meat and vegetables, such as poultry, cauliflower, and onions. Combine those in a quick braise with saffron, cinnamon, cumin, and almonds and you have a North African-esque dish that tastes like it took way more time than it did.
For general cooking, it's best to add saffron early on in cooking so its flavor can infuse into the other ingredients. If there's water already in the pan, just crumble in the threads. Otherwise soak them in a tablespoon of water for ten minutes before adding to the pan.

If you want saffron's delicate flavor to really come to the fore, keep the other flavors and seasonings to a minimum. But I most enjoy saffron as a supporting player, less for its flavor than for the depth of flavor it gives a whole dish. A small pinch in a large pot of food makes a substantial change its character: The flavor is richer, fuller, and much more aromatic. My favorite saffron dishes are humble affairs with simple ingredients and spices, like plov, an Uzbek rice pilaf studded with carrots and onions. The saffron adds a hint of luxury and some sophisticated sweetness.


Whether you dress it up or down, saffron's worth getting to know. The quality stuff is easier to find than ever, and if you purchase by the gram or the ounce, it's an affordable luxury that'll pay for itself over and over.

Never buy ground saffron. Far too often it's cut with turmeric, paprika, and the aforementioned bark. Even if it's from a spice merchant you trust, saffron powder loses its flavor faster than whole threads. If you have the option to buy a small sample of saffron threads, drop them in some warm water in a small bowl. In a minute or two the water should be a bright, clean yellow, and the threads should retain their shape. If the water is murky or the threads fray, it's a sign of adulteration.

How to Source Saffron

First things first, beware of bunk saffron. Saffron will always be expensive; if you see a packet of a couple ounces for a few dollars, just put it back. The image on the right is what real saffron looks like. The threads are fine and even in size, with a thin yellow tendril on one end and a trumpet-like flute on the other. Compare that to some fraudulent saffron on the left: coarse, irregular threads, tiny shreds of something almost bark-like. The yellow bits aren't even connected to the red threads, a sure sign of fraud. The fake stuff often smells like bark with some chemical additives thrown in (basically what it is); real saffron will tickle your nose even through a layer of plastic.

Your major purchasing decision will be country of origin. When I can find Iranian saffron, that's my top choice. The color is a deeper red and spice's telltale musk (a fantastic corrective to its sweet perfume) is more pronounced. But these saffrons are difficult to find for reasons of embargo, difficulty in cultivation, and local bans on export for the international market. The next step down (though only the nitpickiest would call it a downgrade) is Spanish saffron, which is high quality, relatively available, and strictly regulated.


Spanish saffron is divided into grades. Names to look for are coupe, superior, La Mancha, or Rio. Coupe is the top of the line: it has the least flavorless yellow stem and the highest amount of crocin, one of the key essential oils in saffron. If you can't find coupe grade (or don't want to shell out the money for it), those other grades are more affordable and still high quality. Pick your grade by the saffron's final destination. If you're using it as a mélange of spices to glow in the background, a lower grade will do you fine. But for dishes where it's the star, such as risotto Milanese, go for the best you can get (though those lower grades will still taste great).

What's The Deal With Saffron?

At a price of $2,000 to $10,000 a pound, saffron is far and away the most expensive food on earth, way more than truffles, caviar, and real balsamic vinegar. Its history is epic; its flavor is revered. International organizations employ lab equipment to fuss over grading crops for flavor, color, and richness. And its longstanding coveted status has borne a tradition of adulteration, embargo, and conspicuous consumption that can only be characterized as grotesque. So what's the deal with this stuff? Is it worth all the fuss? And what, at the end of the day, can you really do with it?


First, an explanation of its price. Saffron threads are the stamens of the crocus, a high-maintenance flower whose climatory pickiness is matched only by its fickle yields. Each flower, which blooms for one week of the year, produces about three stamens which must be picked by hand (with the greatest delicacy, of course) and dried (delicately again!). 150 flowers and substantial labor are needed to produce a single gram of saffron; it's only as affordable as it is because harvesters aren't paid much at all. There are less expensive varieties available, but real saffron has a high base rate of expense that its price just can't sink below.

Saffron chelow rice

Saffron is often used as a garnish to liven up plain white chelow rice. The classic presentation is described below, but an alternative method that we like is to drizzle saffron liquid over the parboiled rice before steaming, which creates a pretty marbled effect through the rice as it cooks. In Iran, it’s rare to see whole saffron threads in rice dishes. Saffron is nearly always used in powder form and steeped in a little water to create a saffron liquid. We prefer to buy the best-quality saffron threads we can find and grind them as called for. (If you need more than 2 tablespoons saffron liquid, simply allow 10 saffron threads per each extra 1 tablespoon boiling water and proceed as below.) If you’d rather, however, you can use ¼ teaspoon saffron powder – just mix it with the boiling water and proceed as described below.

Add saffron, ginseng to your diet

Spicing up your sex life may be as easy as going to your kitchen cupboard — although it might be pricey.

Saffron — at $3 to $5 a gram in Toronto, regarded as the world’s most expensive spice — has been shown in clinical studies to enhance sexual performance, according to a University of Guelph review of natural aphrodisiacs studied in about 150 international studies over the past 10 years.

Similarly, there’s evidence that panax ginseng (also called Korean ginseng) might have a salutary role to play in the bedroom.

“We’re going to raise more than a few eyebrows with this study,’’ says food-science professor Massimo Marcone, who co-authored the paper with graduate student John Melnyk.

While aphrodisiac claims for various plant products have been made for millennia, “the science behind the claims has never been well understood or clearly reported,’’ says Marcone.

The University of Guelph scientific review will appear in Food Research International.

The clinical studies on panax ginseng, concluded that men with mild or moderate erectile dysfunction showed significant improvement. The same studies indicated menopausal women reported higher arousal frequency and satisfaction when they took it.

Studies in male rats who were given saffron, meanwhile, showed an increase in sexual activity in male rats given the spice. A human study found that men who took 200 mg of saffron a day for 10 days reported improved erectile function and sexual satisfaction.

“The medicine chest has really moved from the bathroom to kitchen table,’’ says Marcone, observing the popularity of natural health products. That said, he emphasizes he is not advocating that people use the plants and animals that were the subjects of the studies he examined.

“We’re not trying to market anything with this review,’’ he says.

The review will certainly discourage people from using Spanish fly (a powder created from blister beetles, which contain a toxin). Its use as an aphrodisiac in traditional Chinese and African cultures has resulted in deaths. Studies in rats have also shown it can be lethal.

Marcone’s survey looked at studies involving yohimbine, a chemical from West Africa’s yohimbine tree, which has been used to increase libido and in the treatment of impotence. It is legal only by prescription in Canada. Some products containing yohimbine bark extra have been sold online and in some retail outlets but Health Canada has issued an advisory warning people that there is a risk of potentially serious side effects.

The male and female libido-enhancing properties of the muira puama plant of Brazil and the maca root (sold over the counter by Canadian retailers) from a member of the mustard family found in the Andes are also attested to in a number of studies reviewed by Marcone.

Cloves, sage and nutmeg have had sexually stimulating effects in clinical studies in rats, but Marcone has encountered no research on humans.

Although chocolate has a reputed aphrodisiac effects, he says he found no study supporting this. He adds that certain ingredients in chocolate, such as phenylethylamine, “can affect serotonin and endorphin levels in the brain,’’ which can improve mood, he says.

World’s Most Expensive Spicy Aphrodisiac

Middle East flavors can ‘spice’ up your love life, Canadian study finds.

History is ripe with stories of foods, herbs and spices thought to enhance the libido, but scientific data to support whether a man’s virility or a woman’s sex drive could really be enhanced by certain supplements is scant. The dearth of proof may be changing. Canadian researcher, Massimo Marcone, a professor in Guelph’s Department of Food Science, and master’s student John Melnyk, have confirmed what the ancients knew with regards to food and sexual health. Specific compounds, including the world’s most expensive spice (read further for the big reveal!) – whose origins are Middle Eastern/Asian – offer up eco-sexy nutrition without the side effects of pharmaceuticals such as Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil).
Their results are available online and will appear in print in the journal Food Research International.

First the Science, then the Sex

Marcone and his team examined hundreds of studies on commonly used consumable aphrodisiacs to investigate claims of psychological or physiological sexual enhancement. Ultimately, they included only studies meeting their most ‘stringent controls.’

“Ours is the most thorough scientific review to date. Nothing has been done on this level of detail before now.” Marcone reportedly said of their investigation into natural sexual enhancers. Such research is compelled in part by the multi-billion dollar erectile dysfunction drug industry that comes with a ‘price.’
“These drugs can produce headache, muscle pain and blurred vision, and can have dangerous interactions with other medications. They also do not increase libido, so it doesn’t help people experiencing low sex drive.” There’s additional concern that younger men are using these drugs when they have no history of erectile dysfunction, and in combination with other agents that could cause dangerous side effects or adverse reactions. Green lovers recognize the need for natural products that enhance sex without negative side effects, hence the growing popularity of the eco-sexuality movement.

The results? They found that panax ginseng from Asia and yohimbine, a natural chemical from yohimbe trees in West Africa, improved human sexual function.  Increased sexual desire was reported after eating muira puama from Brazilian and maca root from the Andes. Alcohol was found to increase arousal but impede performance. But despite its purported aphrodisiac effect, chocolate was not definitively linked to sexual arousal or satisfaction, the study said.

“It may be that some people feel an effect from certain ingredients in chocolate, mainly phenylethylamine, which can affect serotonin and endorphin levels in the brain,” Marcone said.

Get it on with Saffron

As for the contribution from this region to our sexual palates, it turns out that saffron, a spice used along Europe’s glamorous Mediterranean coast and throughout Middle Eastern cuisine, from Iran to Iraq, Turkey to Greece with evidence dating back thousands of years, may be one of the most potent enhancers yet. Stories abound about the use of saffron by Cleopatra (who is said to have taken baths in waters scented with this rare gem prior to making love), Ancient Persia, the Sumarians and Alexander the Great (as a curative for battle wounds), among many others.

To this day, the northern town of Safranbolu in Turkey – a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose name is derived from this delicate flower – is known for its annual saffron harvest festivals.
Even the Hebrew Bible sets claim to saffron’s seductiveness in the Song of Solomon.

“Your lips drop sweetness like honeycomb, my bride, syrup and milk are under your tongue, and your dress had the scent of Lebanon. Your cheeks are an orchard of pomegranates, an orchard full of rare fruits, spikenard and saffron, sweet cane and cinnamon.^”

It has been suggested that part of saffron’s magical property is thought to be its enhancement of “lust” via certain neurotransmitters that stimulate libido or erogenous zones. Saffron may also lower blood pleasure and stimulate respiration.

The parts used for culinary purposes are the stigma or style, the female sexual organs of the flower. There are three stigma on any one flower, so it takes 150,000 flowers to produce one kilogram of dried saffron, making it the most expensive spice in the world. Iran and Spain are the world’s largest producer of this flower (part of the Iris family Iridaceae) accounting for 80% of the global crop.



While their findings support the use of foods and plants for sexual enhancement, the authors urge caution. “Currently, there is not enough evidence to support the widespread use of these substances as effective aphrodisiacs,” Marcone said. “More clinical studies are needed to better understand the effects on humans.”
