When my lovely neighbor brought me back saffron from her recent trip to Spain I decided to make this silky saffron aioli to bring to mah jong night at here place. I blanched some seasonal veggies for dipping, along with some cucumbers, pea shooters, and white-wine poached shrimp. Thanks to Food & Wine for the inspiration and recipe that I adapted.
