Advised to soak it in milk or water for 2-3 hrs and then use it for dishes like halwa, kheer or other sweets

I have bought the saffron now but the saffron isn't opening the bottle very tight have tried everything any suggestions fast plz!

You can use a knife to lightly pry open the sides of the tin cap.

If we teste it raw is it bitter in taste as real saffron is bittet in taste

Dear Gayatri, a very good observation indeed. Saffron is quite bitter in taste. This is due to the presence of an organic compound known as "Picrocrocin". Morever, there are laboratory tests which can measure the level of "Picrocrocin" and as a result determine how bitter that batch of Saffron is going to be. For Saffron to receive a "Grade-A" certification, "Picrocrocin" levels have to be above 70 (Bitterness expressed as absorbance of Picrocrocin at about 257 nm (on dry basis). Our batches have exceeded these levels time and again!
