Saffran is great with rice. I remember some cook once recommended me to grind it down first, mix it with little bit of water or milk and add it to the rice(but only at the very end of the cooking, otherwise it'll loose its taste)

Also for some reason when I eat saffran i get extremely horny for some reason, which is actually said to happen if you consume saffran.

Paella. I can't believe no one has said it yet.

Just ate some paella. Was gonna post, but u did it :)

Paella is the obvious choice, but I'd cast my vote for Risotto Milanese. Make some Osso Buco to serve with it and thank me later.

Some jerk is gonna come in here and tell you that you bought safflower not saffron, ignore that low effort ass.

I like to cook my rice (literally any method will work) and once it's done to my liking and ready to serve I quickly but gently mix some saffron into it. The saffron doesn't diffuse through all the rice but it leaves these bright pockets of yellow-orange-red stained rice that are full of intense saffron aroma, and also look nice against the rest of the white rice.

i got some legit saffron, it was $10 CAD for 1.5 grams

that sounds good though, for how little saffron you need i think this 1.5 grams will go far so i will try a few things

>>16388397
this is actually exactly the dish my chef friend said to make

Anyone else here getting horny when eating Saffran?

>>16388279
They had tiny bottles of saffron at TJ Maxx a few months back. No cameras in the aisle. Pocketed 4 of them and walked right out, easy as pie. Got a nice little stash now. What should I make? I've only used it in rice so far.

>>16388787
I'd just keep using it in rice which is a tasty but high calorie food. You'll need those calories to turn your life around to get a job, so that you can pay other people for the services they provide you.

The only time I recall eating saffron, I was on the front patio of a restaurant in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and there were a bunch of hot /fa/ Italian women walking around visiting the shops. I was feeling horny, but I don't think it had anything to do with the saffron.

You realize saffron is literally a plants dick right

Heard from some iranian that the way to 'get' the taste for saffron is to have it in warm milk. Don't burn the milk, just heat it with the saffron slowly. There's a lot of fat soluble flavor in there.

Rice pudding

>>16388279
just make sure the first time you use it, it is really easy to use too much and it makes your food taste like medicine

>>16388397
I'm going to go get some saffron and do this

what in tarnation? this thread is still up today? i didn't realize how slow /ck/ is

>>16388853

>>16388279

>>16388397
>Paella is the obvious choice

Iranian dishes would be the obvious choice.

>>16388787
Get a job

>>16388279
Biryani

Rice pudding - raisins, walnuts, saffron, etc

Saffron makes me happy, I wouldn't doubt it makes you horny.
>>16388515
Yea, it lifts my mood, believe it or not.
>>16388842
I'm gonna try this with milk first and then with ghee, thanks.

>>16388279
Prepare to be disappointed, it's not that good. It adds a little bit of a unique flavor and a lot of color but at the end of the day if it wasn't dummy expensive nobody would be talking about it.

The saffrole out of saffron is a precursor for making MDMA. People say it has similar but way more mild effects. MDMA can make you horny.
