Adventures in cooking, day 100.

My entire apartment smells like saffron. $20 buys you just four teeny capsules of the stuff, and it comes in little threadlike strands that you infuse in whatever you'll be using to cook (for me, it was a pan of butter).

I ended up using two for my zucchini (<--- needed to google to figure out how to spell) and squash medley. Considering I used $10 worth of spice, the flavor is disappointingly subtle.

Note to self: hot pan + 10 seconds turning around to grab the veggies = burnt saffron...

Hey, at least the veggies are healthy, right? Well, they were.. until the half a stick of butter I fried them in :)
