Saffron

Canon Linked from 3 articles

Saffron was a cooking ingredient used on the forest planet Olkrastrus IV. In 19 BBY, a family on Olkrastrus IV served mashed grains and dried berries from the world's Spiral Forest to the human Bail Organa and the Heptooinian Haki Zeophrine while hosting them. The berries were each unique in color and aroma and had hints of saffron, jasmine, rose, and hot peppers. Around 10 BBY, the Twi'lek mechanic and artist Sornah Bocc included saffron on an aurebesh supplies list on her datapad while she was living on the planet Malastare.

The ingredient shared its name with "Saffron Ewok" and "Saffron AT-ET," a costume and weapon respectively, which were used by the Grand Arena Hunter Pilbush in 9 ABY.
