Preparation and Usage
You
usually need just a little saffron.
If using a cooking liquid - stock, wine, water - add the saffron to it and
warm gently to infuse the colour and fragrance.
Otherwise grind the saffron with any spices you are using, or crumble
directly into the dish.
Saffron's special flavour can be enhanced by toasting in a dry pan. This
should be done over a moderate heat and with great vigilance, as the saffron
can easily burn.
