Description
Persian Pushal saffron threads (Crocus sativus L.), sold loose by weight under the Saffron Distribution brand. Pushal is the red stigma with a small part of the yellow base: the most affordable of the three cuts, for people who use saffron often and in quantity.
What to use it for
- Everyday cooking: stocks, sauces, white meat, legumes
- Baking and desserts: bread, leavened cakes, biscuits, creams
- Infusions, teas and drinks, where saffron dissolves and the thread is not visible
- Restaurants, workshops and delis working in volume

The cut tells you which part of the thread is in the pack, not its colouring strength: that depends on the batch.
