サフランはアブルッツォ州の名産で、ラクイラ県の「ナヴェッリ平原」で栽培されています。最高級の品質として名をはせ、世界中に輸出されています。.........Saffron is cultivated on the “Navelli Plateau” of L’Aquila Province. It is called the “Saffron Village” and 200,000 Saffron flowers blossom proudly through the 20 kilometer length of the plateau. Today the annual harvest of Saffron is 80 kilograms. Since ancient times, the red stamen is pulled out by hand and dried. This mind-boggling repeated hand-labor gives birth to a high quality product that is exported throughout the entire world.....from the book of ."Mysterious Abruzzo" (The English version will be pablished at the end of November 2015)
