How to Make Saffron water | केशर पाणि

I had seen this trick in one of 'Vahchef's' videos when chef 'Sanjay' needed saffron water for some reason and he casually shared this tip of making the perfect Saffron Liquid.I exactly do not remember the recipe I see more and more and more recipes of him,but all I remembered of this important and easy TIP.

Needless to say that saffron is used world wide.In Indian dishes,two things come to mind immediately,those are 'Shrikhand' and 'Biriyani' where this saffron liquid is a must.Now,let us learn to make this.



Ingredients :

  1. Kesar or Saffron - 8 to 10 Strands.

STEPS :
  • Heat a heavy bottom utensil or you can also use a laddle.
  • When it is hot, put the flame off and immediate place the Saffron strands on the hot surface.
  • Within some seconds,you will get to feel the nice aroma of saffron.
  • Now Saffron strands are hard and can be crushed very easily.Transfer the Saffron to a bowl.
  • Crush with hands or spoon.
  • Add around 4 Tsp of water and leave for 10 minutes.
  • After some time,you will see a nice orange water. 


TIP :
  • Milk can be used instead of water.
