The vanilla and saffron-infused honey served at Cinnamah-Brosia’s Coffee Cottage may have caught your attention. You learned in the fun facts from The Essence of Courage that saffron is the most expensive spice in the world. Researching saffron, I discovered that vanilla pairs well with saffron in many dishes. Interestingly, vanilla is made from the seed pods of orchids. These precious spices combine well with honey to create a tasty drizzle for your favorite biscuit recipe. Check out Vanilla Bean Kings’ website, where you’ll find more ways to use this intriguing combination of spices.
The combination makes an excellent gift. We found the beautiful acacia wood lids pictured below on Etsy. The bee would be perfect for jars of infused honey to make a really special gift presentation.
