So, what is saflor?

Saflor is a vibrant and versatile ingredient that has been used for centuries in culinary and medicinal applications. Also known as safflower, it is a thistle-like plant with yellow, orange, or red flowers that bloom in the summer. The oil extracted from its seeds is a popular cooking oil due to its high smoke point, mild flavor, and health benefits, including reducing inflammation and promoting heart health. In addition to its culinary uses, saflor has been used in traditional medicine to treat conditions such as coughs, fevers, and menstrual disorders. Its natural bright hues make it a popular natural dye for textiles and cosmetics.
