"What I've learned from the Spaniards is that good food is all about quality ingredients." Says Tommi.
In Castille quality doesn’t come much higher than in the region's most expensive export - saffron.
In the UK, 1kg of saffron can cost up to £2500. Taken from the stigmas of crocus flowers, saffron is so expensive because once the flower is in bloom, it has to be picked within an hour and a half or the spice is ruined.
