Saffron
Pietra Zita Saffron from Sant'Angelo di Brolo is a precious and authentic spice , cultivated with passion in the heart of Sicily .
Every year, between mid-October and mid-November , the harvest takes place at dawn , when the fields transform into a wonderful carpet of purple flowers . The stigmas are patiently hand-picked and then dried at low temperatures to preserve their aroma, color, and quality as much as possible.
A natural and pure product, perfect for enriching your gourmet dishes , from risottos to sweet and savoury preparations, with the authentic flavour of Sicilian tradition .
Pietra Zita cultivates and handcrafts in Sicily, between the Nebrodi Mountains, in Sant'Angelo di Brolo (Messina): genuine jams, EVO oil, saffron and ready-to-serve specialities. Every product comes from natural ingredients and great care: no shortcuts, just pure taste and a supply chain followed from the field to the jar.
