One gram of saffron!

I bought one gram of saffron at the pharmacy, as

my mother once told me that was the place to

buy it. It is called safran in Norwegian.

She used it for some of her Christmas baking.

I want to use a tiny bit of it for Yellow Salmon Soup

and a little bit for double-braided loaves.

One gram!

Many years ago I was told saffron is more expensive

than gold.

This one gram cost 126 Norwegian kroner - around

21 US dollars, I estimate.

Will it be enough for the soup and the bread?

:-)

Will I have some of it left for further projects after that?
