Types of saffron
Saffron is divided into three general categories:
- Bunch Saffron
- Pushal Saffron
- Sargol Saffron
Keep in mind that stigma is the red part of saffron string and cream is the yellow part.
What is Pushal saffron?
Among the most important appearance characteristics of Pushal saffron, we can mention existance of cream and torsion of Pushal saffron strings.
In Pushal saffron, there is 1 to 3 mm of yellow cream at the end of the stigmas, so due to the presence of cream, the coloring power of Pushal saffron is less than Sargol saffron.
Due to the cream, the stigmas of the three branches remain connected to each other, and the same connection of the three branches to each other causes the possibility of fraud in this type of saffron to reach zero, and this feature of Pushal saffron has caused this type of saffron to have many fans.
Types of Pushal saffron
Pushal saffron is offered in three types of weak Pushal saffron, ordinary Pushal saffron, and Pushal Qalmadar saffron. The difference between the three depends on the amount of cream or the root of the strings, and the size of the the stigma’s upper part.
In this type, there is a small amount of saffron cream (root). The amount of root in first-grade saffron is about 3 mm. This type of saffron is suitable for industrial, home, and medical uses. Buyers of saffron find Pushal saffron more suitable due to its cream (root), which makes it easier to detect fraud.
Weak Pushal saffron
The stigmas are very weak and thin, the most important reason being insufficient water and unsuitable soil, as well as late watering of the land. Another effective factor is the fineness and weakness of saffron onions.
Normal Pushal saffron
This type of Pushal saffron has a stubborn stigma with normal thickness and more cream and has a much better aroma and taste than the weak type.
Respectively, weak Pushal saffron/ third grade Pushal saffron and ordinary Pushal saffron/ second grade Pushal saffron, have slightly more root than first grade Pushal saffron/ Qalamdr Pushal saffron.
Qalamdar Pushal Saffron
Qalamdar Pushal saffron is one of the best types of Pushal saffron, in this type of Pushal saffon red strings are stretched and thicker. The stigmas are thick, smooth, and elongated, and have a higher coloring power than other types of Pushal saffron. The amount of yellowness of saffron stigmas is less and it does not have any saffron pollen with it. Also, its stigmas’ upper part are bigger.
Among the characteristics of Pushal saffron the following can be mentioned:
• deep orange color
• Separate pieces
• Cream at the end of the stigma
• High stigma thickness
• Interconnected coil
• The coloring power of 170 to 25.
What is the difference between Pushal saffron and Sorgol Saffron?
• The most important difference between Pushal saffron and Sorgol saffron is in their appearance.
Sargol does not have any yellowness (cream) but in Pushal saffron, usually, three branches of saffron (stigma) are connected and at the end, there is some yellowness, which is less in Qalamdar Pushal saffron.
• Pushal saffron has all the stigma and part of the cream, while Sargol saffron only consist of the red stigmas.
• Sargol saffron has no yellowness or cream and for this reason, its branches are broken,
• Sargol saffron is better than Pushal saffron.
• The price of Pushal saffron is lower than Sargol saffron due to the presence of cream.
• The coloring power of Sargol saffron is more than the rest and is about 210 to 260 units.
• Sargol saffron is used more than other types.
