LEAD IN :
Saffron is the world's most expensive spice.
The red stigma of the saffron crocus flower is carefully removed and dried, making it a labour intensive, yet delicate task - that contributes to its high value.
Iran is the world's largest exporter of the saffron.
STORY LINE:
It's an agricultural task so delicate that machines can't do it.
Even if they could, the saffron flowers that need picking only sprout for two weeks in late autumn.
The combination of hand labour and the limited production window is why saffron is so expensive.
