Safflower Cut & Sifted - Carthamus tinctorius, 1 lb, (Starwest Botanicals)
Safflower powder is made from the petals of a flower of the aster family. It bears a slight resemblance to the common dandelion. Normally grown for its oil, dried safflower can be used in recipes in place of saffron as a much less expensive substitute (it is also known as “false saffron”). Bird lovers can also add the seed to their feeders, as the taste is unpalatable to squirrels and other small rodents.
- Origin: China
- Common Names: American saffron, dyers' saffron, false saffron
- Kosher Certified
