It's really not any more expensive than any other spice. You just don't need to use lots of it.

>> No.11337825

Not my fault your taste buds have been obliterated by the gorrillion tons of artificial flavor and sodium in each of your tendies. You probably can't taste anything less processed than a big mac at this point.

Maybe if you're using dried-out five year old saffron from the back of the cupboard. It's actually really easy to overpower your dish with saffron if it's fresh and decent quality.

Come on guys, I made paella with and without it and the only difference was the color. Now to be fair, the color made it look more palatable , but that can be achieved other ways.

you need to steam it, and then make a tea out of it to get the flavor retard.

I once watched someone add it to a stirfry. Seared the flavor right in. I watched other people stick them in a fucking stew.

I lost a friend that night.

That's part of the problem in the US since only 5% of the population has ever heard of it and only .01% ever cook with it. So the shit you buy at the grocery is probably 2 yo dried out flavorless red strings.
