Originating perhaps from China and long cultivated in the Turkish/Greek region, saffron was grown in Spain from around the Middle Ages and this is where some of the best saffron has long been sourced from. It was also grown in England for three centuries in the counties of Cambridgeshire and Essex.","Page image":"File:Saffroncrocus.png","Page language":"en","Page license":"CC-BY-SA-3.0","Page title":"Saffron","Page views":"254","Page year":"Sunday, 01-Jan-12 00:00:00 UTC","Modification date":"Friday, 28-Nov-25 02:08:42 UTC"}
