Also search youtube and recipe sites for all recipes with saffron. Some cooking sites let you search for everything with that includes your available ingredients.

Definitely make saffron ice cream

Risotto milanese mah niggah

>>8916465
put a tiny bit in warm water and watch the fake saffron flavored gelatin dissolve.

>>8916465
Sell and get rich.

I forget the Italian name, but you make risotto, add eggs, cheese and some saffron to it, scoop them into little balls, freeze those, bread and deep fry them, serve with a little marinara. Fucking super tasty party food.

>>8917029
This.
Or waste it on a shitty YouTube video.

>>8917037
Seems some weird kind of supplì or arancino. In neither of them you put egg or vulgar cheese; just a stick of mozzarella inside the ball of cooked rice.

>>8917037
Depending on details, goes by a lot of names.
God tier is arancine/arancini; usually big and with fillings, they're also popular as a party item small and without fillings as you say.
About one inch diameter is good.

>>8917053
Are you italian?
Yes arancine have parmigiano in the risotto, you retard. Also what he says sounds like arancinette.

>>8916465
You can make saffron ice cream if you have some rock salt and an ice cream maker. It comes out beautifully yellow and is delicious.

Also it plates great over backlava.

Otherwise make a saffron tea and set it aside as a marinade for things like lamb. Shit is potent as fuck and I wouldn't use it as a rub unless it's bitch-tier Mexican saffron.

You can add it to to a chick pea soup, you can add it to meatballs and make them with stock instead of tomato sauce, mash up with some wine and oil and garlic and parsleyspoon over lamb in the oven or o nthe grill, withchicken and cumin and nuts in a soup or make a polow or a really great pilaff, curried type meat with sauce underneath with fragrant saffron rice on top. There's so many things you can do with saffron.

>>8916465
>Shit ton of saffron
>Literal gold of spices
Isn't saffron more valuable per ounce than gold right now?

>>8917556
Only if it's Iranian.

>>8916465
You do realize that saffron is worth more than gold by weight? Sell that shit and buy a crate of ms dash.

>>8917724
you say it like its easy to move saffron

I much rather have gold, that shit is liquid

It isn't like there are saffron dealers here and there.

somehow I doubt you have real saffron anyway.

>>8918338
Just like all the autistic fucks who think they have had real wasabi before, you have not.

>>8919808
>everything I don't like is autism
Neat.

>>8916465
it's fake

>>8916465
Mussels are fantastic with saffron.

>>8916465
Whenever I see a recipe that includes saffron that I want to make, I just ignore that part of it. I've never noticed a difference. If there was anything that should be called a "meme," I suppose it's saffron.

poach cod in canned tomatoes with safron

>>8919808
So you basically just confirmed it was fake? wew.

Good call, anon >>8918338

You could try 'fabada asturiana' a spanish bean stew, may look gross but its so good.

>>8916465

Paella doesn't have sausage, you fucking nigger. Jambalaya does, however.

Saffron doesn't go bad so it's not like there is a hurry bro

>>8922318

What does this stuff taste like and why is it so expensive?

Can't a person just grow some?

It is a vegetable right?

>>8923846
it's a flower, well specifically a part of a flower

its expensive cause its tedious to harvest with a low yield

>>8923918

Roll dat shit up and smoke it
