We mostly eat it straight off the cob, which I don't much like. I've only recently discovered how good it is stripped off the cob and used in cooking.<BR/><BR/>Wendy: I know just what you mean, and I only use these in moments of extreme stress. I prefer to cook a lot of onions at once, more than I need, so that the rest can go into the fridge for the next time. That's a huge help to the daily cook, more environmentally friendly - and you get the bonus of the kitchen smelling good enough to eat ;)<BR/><BR/>Great idea Fiona - and I will put it on my list of things to GIVE people who would appreciate it (I like to give presents that eventually disappear, rather than creating clutter ... paper and paint for children, food for adults, etc). And you're right, you need quite a lot of saffron, otherwise it's not worth using.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06790888857849562408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12910213.post-32994704908422429442007-10-13T10:12:00.000+01:002007-10-13T10:12:00.000+01:00Great blog Joanna, I love it!

I think that you are right the saffron and fresh corn would make the difference.<BR/><BR/>I used to be quite stingy when it came to saffron and finally twigged that you need a reasonable amount to make a difference. We now have saffron on our Christmas lists which guarantees a decent supply for the rest of the year!Cottage Smallholderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17601823009644161536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12910213.post-13268476937450383492007-10-13T07:50:00.000+01:002007-10-13T07:50:00.000+01:00Sounds delicious.

My only problem with them would be that I love the smell of cooking onions and would feel cheated without it! :)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07157804056370219398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12910213.post-58738138750049824802007-10-12T23:16:00.000+01:002007-10-12T23:16:00.000+01:00Fast, easy and delicious AND celebrates Kalyn's 2y...Fast, easy and delicious AND celebrates Kalyn's 2yr WHB!
