EVERYWHERE you read, "Saffron and Tumeric are used mostly for the colour, they are interchangable." (Because Saffron is pricey and Tumeric is cheap, even though a large bottle of tumeric costs about as much as the teeny boxes of saffron you buy, but each lasts me about a year or so).

Am I the only person in the universe who finds them very NOT interchangable? Each has a unique flavour and they are nothing alike. When I make my favourite rice dish, I usually end up adding more tumeric for the flavour. I don't need my rice to be yellow, but I want the tumeric flavour there.
