It has a delicate sweet taste and smell reminiscent of honey and straw and is used in food and sweets. It is used in rice and risotto, in chicken, in legumes, in vegetables, in yogurt dips and even in sweet creams. It is also used as a coloring agent for rice or sweets, as it gives a golden yellow color. It is recommended to soak the amount of yolk we want to use in water an hour before use and to use it sparingly as its flavor can alter the taste of the rest of the food.

This "magical" plant, however, has not earned its reputation unjustly. It is also a powerful medicinal plant with multiple uses. Contains vitamin B12, lycopene, zeaxanthin, α-β carotene as well as vitamin C, iron, potassium and magnesium. It helps with indigestion, soothes kidney pain, has anti-aging, anti-depressant and anti-cancer properties, enhances brain function and memory, lowers cholesterol and blood pressure, soothes the respiratory system and has aphrodisiac properties.
