Methods of selling fake saffron
Unfortunately, some profit seekers, in order to get their products to the customers as optimal products, do inappropriate methods in order to somehow make a profit. Some people, by using original saffron, combine some other ingredients such as salt, sugar or even flower color with it to increase its weight and gain more profit. Sometimes the stigmas are dipped in honey or sap to make them heavier. Some other people also use artificial color to increase the coloring power of saffron. It is recommended to buy saffron only from healthy and unpowdered stigmas so that the possibility of fraud in their preparation is less. Saffron spray is not a guarantee of their originality. If the price of the saffron you are buying is surprisingly cheaper than other types of models, then doubt buying it.
You should also consider some points regarding the storage of saffron. Keep it away from light, heat and moisture, and especially if you store saffron in powdered form, put it in a closed glass or plastic container so that air does not enter it. If the storage conditions of saffron are not suitable, the saffron essence evaporates, the composition of the cream is kept for a shorter period of time, and it may lose its medicinal effects to some extent.
