Saffron Alfredo image

This is a base sauce for other recipes and can be modified to fit almost any white sauce recipe. It is a sauce you can freeze and use at a later time. It thickens into a paste as it cools; use only a tablespoon or two per meal that you are making. I use this sauce as a base for my shrimp diablo.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out grainy. I think I might have overcooked it.

I was really looking forward to trying this recipe, but I was disappointed. The sauce was too thin and the flavor was bland.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but it was still very good. I think I'll try it again with less butter and cream next time.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of saffron, but I'm so glad I did! The saffron flavor is subtle and really complements the other flavors in the dish. It's now one of my favorite pasta dishes.
