what kind of dishes would you put saffron into ??

Saffron goes well with paella, and I like to add it to normal rice especially when serving with fajitas or in burritos. You can also add it to the boiling process of potatoes to give them a lovely golden glow.

You could also add it to bread to make saffron rolls (see Dough for the recipe).

Used frequently to colour indian dishes and add a final flavour as an accent at the end (e.g. infused into an ingredient, like warm oil or milk, and poured over).

Yeah, I do this a lot. Heat milk, leave crushed saffron to infuse for an hour or so, when rice is almost done, drizzle the milk over the rice. Beautiful! Whay's Saffron so expensive though?
