Here's what you get:
I had a recipe that called for 1 tsp. of saffron. Turns out, I could have used the saffron strands, but since I ordered the powdered version I could half the recipe. All 3 of these little containers equals to about 3/4 of a teaspoon. I've never used this spice before, had an odd taste...more for color I guess.

As soon as I opened the shipping package I could smell the zaferon that shows it was such high grade quality zaferon! I love the packaging because it is devided in small three small amounts, I gave one container as a gift to my brother and It keeps it fresh for longer because you only open what you need to use immediately, and keeps the rest fresh for later!
