Used to be nice to make paella

It’s very appealing but the saffron was very dry which indicates that it’s not very fresh and therefore would have lost its lots of its potency and effectiveness

Additionally it contains many orange looking threads

I not only had trouble opening the fancy gilded box this came in but found it completely impossible to grip the tiny edge of cork to pull it out

I had to resort to a corkscrew and when finally the cork came out the miniscule jar flew out of my hands scattering the threads all over the counter and floor
