Recipe Saffron Noodles Amish Cooking Recipes

Place salt, saffron, butter and water in a 2-quart sauce pan. Bring to a boil and add the noodles. Reduce heat to medium and boil, stirring occasionally, for approx. 10 minutes. Drain and serve with browned Butter.

Browned Butter:
Melt 1/2 pound butter over medium-low heat in a heavy 1-qt saucepan (the butter has a tendency to boil over, so make sure you have a big enough pan). After it melts, stir occasionally until ti starts to brown. Remove from heat before it burns. If it gets too dark, it will lose its flavor and become bitter; it should be just a rich nut brown.

1½ t. salt or salt substitute, 1/2 t. pepper will substitute
pinch of saffron
1 T. butter or oil
1 qt. water
3 cups noodles
Browned Butter for topping (optional)

Browned Butter:
1/2 pound butter
