I live in America.
This Christmas, Mom was all excited and gave me some saffron to cook with.
The other day she asks me to make something with it.
I look up how. I Put x amount of strands per serving. I put my rice cooker on warm and let it sit for an hour and a half.
The water turns yellow orange. I flip the switch and make the rice.
The flavor was... incredibly mild. Did my mom buy shit saffron, or did I frick up, or is saffron overrated?

Saffron isn't really very perceptible tbh. I really liked saffron tea though.

My mom just uses it to turn rice orange. Honestly it seems like it’s softer and it sticks less, but that could be a placebo.

It's weird I can picture this, but I can't. Cooking to me is something that I just kinda learned by seeing, but cultures and families are different.
