High on a Walliser mountain is the tiny community of Mund, who harvest no more than five kilos per year. Saffron grows from crocus flowers, each bloom yielding only three thin scarlet threads. It takes over a hundred flowers to make a single gram, which can cost upwards of 30 francs.
Wähe makes an excellent breakfast, lunch or dinner and whether sweet or savoury, it's a great way to use up any sort of surplus—fruit, vegetable, or a pile of mystery cheese in your cheese box.
