Saffron and tomato soup is a beloved home dish that captures the essence of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern culinary traditions. Often made in family kitchens, this comforting soup reflects the warmth and hospitality characteristic of these cultures. Saffron, often referred to as "red gold," adds a touch of luxury with its vibrant colour and unique flavour, while tomatoes, which have become staples since their introduction from the Americas, provide a rich sweetness. This simple yet flavourful soup not only warms the heart but also brings families together, serving as a reminder of cherished moments shared around the table.
