Veronique LAZERAT, producing of Safran into Hollow. Saffron cultivated forever in the Limousin. An exploitation is constituted not far from Evaux-the-Baths, in Fontanières, in the department of the Hollow one. On 1.200 m ², Veronique Lazérat hopes to collect its first kilo in a few years. It is true that with 30 euros the gram, one has evil to better find if one submits the turnover ratio/surface. But Safran is a capricious plant. She asks many care, and enormously work. Harvest, in October and November, is the most beautiful moment. The safraniers are plunged in blue and the mauve of the flowers, without speaking about the odor, enivrante, can be slightly amazing. It east can be not for nothing in passion of those which launched out in its culture.

A new cake creusois: The Saint Blaise
There was Creusois with hazel nut, Trepaïs with sweet chestnut, it exists today the Saint Blaise with the saffron.
The saffron of Font Holy Blaise is in his first years of production. This saffron plantation, initiated by Veronique Lazerat, on the commune of Fontanières, close to Evaux-the-Baths, produces already a saffron of an exceptional quality. Opinion of some chiefs, whose Mr Jacky Morlon, main cook of France to the hotel with restaurant *** the attic with salt (Montlucon), come in particular at the time of launching from this pastry making, Safran was hardly snuffed in the local and regional kitchen. But since the production exists, the use develops.
The Saint Blaise , created by Pascal Bouriquat, baker and confectioner with Evaux-the-Baths, should sign the entry of the department of Hollow in the relatively closed club of the producers of this spice which one especially finds in Gâtinais and on causse of the Batch.
The Saint Blaise has just been developed, and we attended the first tests. General opinion, the marriage of the saffron, cream with the nougat and metal disc of wild strawberries particularly is successful.

Saffron, the most coveted spice world
A report of Jean-Charles Doria and Sebastien Girondon
The saffron, one calls it the red gold. It is the food expensive of the world. Expensive than truffle or the Iranian caviar, it reaches up to 35.000 euros the kilo. But for this price, the consumer is not sure of what it buys. A team of Special correspondent discovered that this spice is extremely defrauded. At the beginning, the saffron is a vulgar onion which costs hardly 30 centimes of euros. But once per annum, at the end of October, it is metamorphosed in flower of color violet, in which hides the famous pistil bright red which is worth gold. It is cultivated in Iran, India and in Morocco. Jean-Charles Doria and Sebastien Girondon inquired in Morocco at the time of harvest. It is in the middle of the Berber mountains of the Atlas that are cultivated each year two tons of saffron. The peasants who collect it do not manage to live about it. However, of the traders succeed in making fortune, by buying the productions at low prices and by reselling them up to thirty times more expensive on the Western markets. The fraud is also very profitable. In Morocco, on six saffrons bought in souks, five samples prove to be curcuma or paprika, or worse, fibres mixed with detergent, dangerous products for health. In France, analyses in a laboratory, made it possible to put at the day one swindles, a pure saffron guaranteed on sale in many trade, which is actually only one banal plant soaked with artificial dyes. Lastly, the production of saffron in France starts again little by little, after having completely disappeared during one century. Some smelled the good thing. Veronique Lazérat has in the Limousin the largest saffron plantation of France and arrives, by producing two kilos of saffron per annum, to gain much money

The saffron, a spice more expensive than gold Not, the red gold is not copper. And not, gold is not the best blue-chip stock.
These qualities, it is the saffron which joins together them: 30.000 euros the kilo, a price which almost never varies, against 18.500 euros for yellow metal. And, surprised, this spice which one could believe too exotic for the climate of the Hexagon, is also cultivated in France, at Veronique Lazérat.
