This dish also works just as well with fish (it is based on a bouillabaisse, after all). You will definitely taste the saffron!

- morkalork 3y agoI'm surprised after all day nobody mentions paella. Definitely not a starter recipe but still, rather well-known is it not?
- AdmiralAsshat 3y agoPaella usually requires a specialized pan to do it properly, which most people might not have, so I thought the bouillabaisse might be easier for people just looking to try saffron out.
- agos 3y agoI'm equally surprised by the absence of risotto in the mentions!
- efournie 3y agoA few threads in a soft boiled egg with a pinch of salt is also a great and easy way to experience the flavor.
