Father EnochFor the fourth, perhaps fifth time, I attempted to make a #PaellaValenciana.
If you ignore the lack of #Saffron, #Rosemary, and #Rabbit, and the fact the rice was "al dente," I'd say I was somewhat successful.
Foreign Trivia🌶️ Saffron is so labor-intensive (about 150 hand-picked crocus flowers per gram) that it was traded as "red gold" along the spice routes. Today's Foreign Five follows the trade winds.

" I'm just mad about saffron ..."
In this case, a juvenile saffron finch.

Stephen Bannasch (316 ppm)Seems to have enough drainage. Have been growing it here for six years. If you like Saffron search my timeline for #Saffron ;-)
It’s an amazingly beautiful flower!

Attached: 1 image @[email protected] Thanks for what you do. Some Saffron I grew. Just a tiny bit of ephemeral beauty …
I dug up the corms in the Saffron bed to divide, share, and replant. Mixed in more compost and planted the lemony basil seedlings. I think they will be very happy!
The Saffron will start coming up again in late August and early September.

GangaSaffron is an amazing spice. But how to use it? Some ways:
🫖 Put 2 threads into a cup of near-boiling water and sip slowly for a relaxing drink.
🍚 Make Saffron Rice - it’s a classic of the Middle East, and one that is so gorgeous. Toss some drained, rinsed and soaked rice in a little heated oil and butter in a pan, and then cook by the absorption method. Meanwhile take a generous pinch of saffron threads and soak it in 2 Tblspn near-boiling water for at least 20 mins.
Pour the saffron infusion into 3 different spots in the rice, cover the pot with a tea towel and replace the lid without stirring the rice. Leave it for 10 mins. Fork the rice gently to fluff it, and you will see you have 2 colours of rice. Gorgeous. Serve with any Middle Eastern or even Indian dish. You will love it.
🥂 Try crushing a tiny piece of saffron into a glass of champagne or sparkling apple cider, turning the drink into a golden elixir.
☕ And coffee spiced with saffron and cardamom is a wonderful, soothing drink.
Wow, I got the seeds collected from the wonderful lemony basil plans I grew to sprout! These seeds are very tiny. I used tweezers to plant two seeds each in 16 of these tiny starting cubes!
I will fill Saffron bed with basil in June when the Saffron has all gone dormant for the summer!
