Saffron Harvesting In Kashmir
Harvested saffron flowers are kept in a basket during the harvest season in Pampore area of Pulwama, south of Srinagar, Indian Administered Kashmir, on November 8, 2024. Saffron is a valuable and highly prized spice, often referred to as ''red gold'' due to its high cost. During the saffron harvest season, people carefully pluck the vibrant crimson threads or strands from the saffron crocus flowers. These strands are then dried to produce the saffron spice, which is used in various dishes for its unique flavor, aroma, and color. (Photo by Muzamil Mattoo/NurPhoto)
