Oftentimes people sell curcuma saying it is saffron to trick customers using a relatively inexpensive alternative, but the taste of curcuma is way different from saffron’s.
Here in Italy we have some cultivars and many dishes prepared with saffron, for example “risotto alla milanese” also called “risotto giallo” which means “yellow risotto” and you can distinctly taste the saffron in it.
Also since saffron is expensive some people use too little spice when preparing dishes and this might be the reason why you say it has no taste.
