Over EtenBelgische Saffraan - Over eten #14Saffraan, een specerij uit het verre oosten, naar ons gebracht via de zijderoute. Althans, de moderne versie dan toch. Of ja, dat dacht ik, want in het Kempische Morkhoven kweken Marc Leloup en Linda Van Den Bulck deze duurste specerij ter wereld. Heel veel gerechten zijn ondenkbaar zonder, zoals paella, risotto alla milanese, tajine, noem maar op... en blijkbaar hebben de Kempen de ideale grond voor deze bloemen. Het fijne ervan hoor je in deze podcast, waar Linda haar weelde aan kennis deelt.
