My choice would be to just leave it out or choose another recipe rather than coloring the dish. Who are you fooling??
We all have differing opinions and choices. That's what makes this a great forum.

...Will use achiote oil, annatto seeds & olive oil, for color knowing full well the taste is completely different.
I get the small bottles from Trader Joe's. Last time I bought it I paid about $5, and I've gotten three uses so far. I think there is enough left for one more nice-sized pot of soup.You can buy it in very small quantities in the grocery...
Sounds like a tasty recipe but cooking 2" cubes of beef for 5-6 hours is a bit of overkill.
The recipe calls for chuck roast. That needs a good slow cook to get tender.

Trader Joe's Saffron is reasonably priced. And you don't need much in a recipe. I never bought or used it till I found it at TJ's. Give it a try if you have a TJ near you.Saffron, like fleur de sel and white truffles, is just too expensive for me.

we've made Mini Meatballs in Saffron Sauce Recipe | Bon Appetit several times as part of a tapas meal.

High quality saffron and Good quality saffron is cheap in Sweden at around Christmas. I think I have a bag or two left here, still good and yes the flavour is amazing. The closes to saffron flavour you can get is actually British Mixed spice, blind folded, my friends couldn't says if it was cheap saffron or mixed spice, it just high quality you cant fool.
I wish I could give you some.
Out of idle curiosity, how do you measure 1 teaspoon of saffron threads? Pack them down into the spoon?
It's been a while since I made it. I served it with roasted chicken but I don't remember how I seasoned it. The rice was very good, though.Missed this in all of Irma drama. What do you serve with it?
Curries, chicken dishes and lamb dishes. I also have it in desserts, cakes, rolls and cookies.
