SAFFRON PISTACHIOS
Saffron, the world's most expensive spice, is fortunately so flavorful that you need only a tiny bit to flavor foods. Used most famously in risotto Milanese, paella and bouillabaisse, saffron adds a kind of aromatic pungency and gorgeous yellow color. Mix into steamed basmati rice or couscous.

- First, you need to make the syrup. Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir once with a wooden spoon to help dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat and keep simmering for 10 min.
- Heat the oil in a separate nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the almonds and cook, stirring often, until they turn golden, about 3 min.
- Add the butter to the nonstick pan and let it melt. Add the semolina and salt when the butter starts to sizzle. Sauté for 5 min stirring often (to prevent the semolina from burning) until the semolina has slightly browned and smells nutty.
- Take the nonstick pan off the heat and pour the hot syrup on the semolina mixture. Mix well with a wooden spoon and cover the pan with a lid.
