 Anna Marshall says:
I noticed that there is a comment about the high price of Saffron. At Trader Joe's the Saffron is really a steal. It is for 0.020 oz. (or 0.70g). I've noticed at other stores that the same amount and sometimes less is actually upwards to . Thanks for this recipe. I'm going to try it out tonight!
