I did not know what saffron was where it came from and why it was so expensive. And it is one of those thing s you think: "I should google that" but at work it is one of the last things I thik of.

Thanx to BBC food i now know:D

Tofu is another one. Thank goodness I was not raised in China:D
 
Don't be nasty with Mila.

Before I started Indian cuisine, I heard of saffron but never knew how to use it or even what it looked like.

Went to Zanzibar on holiday a few years ago and bought a sachet for next to nothing, and gave it to Mr Blu's family.

If only i knew then what I know now about how darn expensive it is here in SA .... :)
 
Tofu I don't get - had some in a Mezo (spelling) soup at CTFM on the weekend.
The soup and Tofu sucked :sick: :o

Maybe we should start our own saffron farm? We can rip people off ourselves:D
 
Don't they teach this stuff in home economics or whatever it was called?
 
Okay, so WTF is saffron? I know its the red stuff and you don't use much of it...

I love meso soup. With seaweed and Tofu. Tofu doesn't taste bad at all. I guess some people either don't have that pallet (like, I won't suck out and eat fish eyes or oysters, which IMO is more yuck than tofu, yum)

Nam... I think I'm getting me some meso soup tomorrow!
 
Used to flavour and colour food. Very expensive.

Yea I know that, but the way thingy goes on about it I figured they probably rape young baby elephants for it and harvest it off blackened souls of the dead's hair while singing cumbaya or some crap
