Some saffron questions ... I've seen some pretty high priced saffron at some
stores. My wife works at a kitchen store some times and they have a bottle
of saffron threads (Crocus Sativus L) that goes for about $5-6 (it's 1 gram,
0.0363 ounces). This seems cheap to me ... you too? It's from Barcelona,
Spain and is labeled 'Mancha-Ora'. I only use it in rissoto and it seems to
work/taste/color just fine. A label on the back states: 32-48 servings.

Are threads cheaper than ground saffron? How does country of origin affect
the price/quality?

Anything else ...
