This 20 g professional pack combines whole Afghan saffron threads, high colouring strength and laboratory-tested quality for everyday culinary use.<\/p>\n<p>The pack is suited to kitchens with a moderate or regular saffron requirement. It offers a practical size between small catering packs and larger bulk quantities, so you can replenish your supply without buying more than you need.<\/p>\n<h2>Afghan saffron from Herat with batch-specific laboratory results<\/h2>\n<p>Our saffron threads come from Herat, Afghanistan, a region known for saffron cultivation. The saffron is carefully processed and packed to protect it from light and help preserve its aroma, colour and quality.<\/p>\n<p>Eurofins assessed batch L2025-01 as <strong>Special Grade under ISO 3632-1:2025, based on the tests performed<\/strong>. Report AR-733-2025-00206306-02, dated 24 August 2026, records crocin 279 \u00b1 7, picrocrocin 104 \u00b1 3, safranal 30 \u00b1 3 and moisture 7.5 \u00b1 1.2%. These results apply to the tested batch. The crocin measurement relates to colouring strength; it is not a percentage of purity or a guarantee of a particular result in every recipe.<\/p>\n<p>Whole saffron threads are easy to inspect and let chefs adjust the amount to the recipe, portion size and desired intensity.<\/p>\n<h2>For restaurants, caf\u00e9s, patisseries and catering<\/h2>\n<p>This professional pack can be used in a wide range of dishes and drinks:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rice dishes and Middle Eastern cooking<\/li>\n<li>Desserts and fine pastries<\/li>\n<li>Bread, cakes and patisserie products<\/li>\n<li>Hot and cold drinks<\/li>\n<li>Sauces and contemporary restaurant dishes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Small quantities can contribute both colour and flavour. The amount needed depends on the dish and preparation method, so adjust it to your recipe rather than relying on a fixed yield claim.<\/p>\n<h2>A practical pack for regular use<\/h2>\n<p>Professional kitchens need ingredients that are both high quality and straightforward to work with. The 20 g pack is designed for regular use, with whole threads that can be portioned to suit different recipes.<\/p>\n<p>The saffron\u2019s high colouring strength makes it suitable for preparations where a distinctive golden colour matters. Whole threads offer flexibility when developing recipes and adjusting the balance of aroma, flavour and colour.<\/p>\n<h2>Direct sourcing from Afghanistan<\/h2>\n<p>Saffrona sources saffron directly from Herat. Our focus is on clear origins, traceability and high-quality Afghan saffron for the European foodservice market.<\/p>\n<p>We aim to build long-term relationships with restaurants and other food businesses that value reliable ingredients and transparent sourcing.<\/p>\n<h2>Why choose Saffrona\u2019s 20 g professional pack?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Whole Afghan saffron threads from Herat<\/li>\n<li>20 g pack for regular professional use<\/li>\n<li>Eurofins Special Grade assessment for batch L2025-01 under ISO 3632-1:2025, based on the tests performed<\/li>\n<li>Reported crocin value for L2025-01: 279 \u00b1 7<\/li>\n<li>Suitable for restaurants, caf\u00e9s, patisseries and catering<\/li>\n<li>Packaging that protects the saffron from light<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Smaller packs and further information<\/h2>\n<p>For smaller kitchens or an introduction to our foodservice range, explore our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saffrona.eu\/en\/product\/saffron-threads-5g-foodservice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5 g professional saffron pack<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saffrona.eu\/en\/saffron-academy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Saffron Academy<\/a> covers saffron\u2019s origins, quality and culinary use.
