Azafran, or safflower is the dried flower of the (Carthamus tinctorius).It is used in various recipes for it's color. It is not a true substitute for saffron as it has none of the same flavoring but it will impart a pleasing color. The safflower plant is best known for production of safflower oil. Azafran can be found in Mexican as well as other Hispanic grocery stores. The flowers are also used as a dye.

The family thinks I am a bit nuts sometimes. It goes like this:
BUZZER goes off on the stove, signaling DINNER IS READY
Dinner gets pulled out of the oven and set on counter
Family is lined up to eat
First words out of my mouth: DON'T TOUCH THAT I HAVE TO TAKE A PICTURE OF IT!!!!
LOL.
It's fun though. And I think they like it even. Yesterday DH lined up a bunch of veggies on the counter and said "here honey, you should take a picture of these" Smart ***!
