Saffron consists of golden-colored, pungent stigmas (pollen-receiving structures) of the autumn crocus (Crocus sativus), which are dried and used as a spice to flavor foods and as a dye to color foods and other products. Saffron has a strong exotic aroma and a bitter taste and is used to color and flavor many Mediterranean and Asian dishes, particularly rice and fish, and English, Scandinavian, and Balkan breads. It is an important ingredient in bouillabaisse soup.
