Wow!...And THAT is why I haven't bought saffron yet. Wow! It does lok delicious though! I make orzo cooked in chicken broth and add a huge handful of parmesan cheese and parsely.

There's a couple of Indian spice shops in the area, and sometimes they sell it for less than the grocery store.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-29415029009715866172008-08-04T05:54:00.000-08:002008-08-04T05:54:00.000-08:00Oh YUMMY!

It looks like it is very similar in ingredients. He just cooks his on a huge paella pan over an open fire.<BR/><BR/>That saffron is amazing stuff with it's coloring abilities. Although I may have to take some ideas from your recipe and pass them to Dave. Spanish paella is rather bland, even with that golden spice.<BR/><BR/>Dave is going to be SOOOO jealous that you got it so cheap.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11971378715777007757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-61397521675089955142008-08-03T21:08:00.000-08:002008-08-03T21:08:00.000-08:00I have a recipe for little potato croquettes with ...I have a recipe for little potato croquettes with saffron aioli that's sooooo good. And if you use instant potatoes, it's not actually hard to make at all. <BR/><BR/>I was going to send you to edfoods.com for some inexpensive saffron but they don't have it anymore!!! But they have freebie soups that are pretty tasty for not being homemade and if you can get past the hydrogenated crap. We think they're great for food storage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-3148667251080853762008-08-03T19:07:00.000-08:002008-08-03T19:07:00.000-08:00that looks DELICIOUS!that looks DELICIOUS!Christie O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16119774914469200174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-37109736497212064172008-08-03T18:13:00.000-08:002008-08-03T18:13:00.000-08:00This sounds so yummy!

I CAN'T find it in Mozambique - surprise!
