TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE: I find making this Dish an incredibly relaxing activity. It's easy and super tasty, and a little bit posh. Saffron is the most expensive ingredient on the planet and it takes so much effort to make a tiny tiny amount of it. In the city where I come from, Saffron, is widly used in many many dishes, so everytime I use Saffron I feel home.

 

Back to it price... I once went to India to visit a Saffron field and found out it was guarded by the indian army. That's how much Saffron costs.

 

In this recipe the trick is to steam Zucchini and Onion over medium-low heat and gently heat Saffron without burning it.
