Hello
Safron is not sweet, however instead of Vegemite why not try a nice thick
slab of very good mature Cheddar cheese?

|Hello List,
|
|Being the lousy cook that I am, I decided to have a go at making saffron
|buns as per the recipe page. I had expected them to be sweet - a bit like
|a cinnamon bun I guess, but not so - well not the one I made anyway. I
|believe that some have fruit and others do not. Think I shall try again
|going for the sweeter recipe next time. HOWEVER, I must confess that I
|tried a slice with just a smidge of vegemite to give it an Aussie flavour
|and it was actually quite nice!! <g> Having said that I must explain that
|I do not like thick wads of vegemite, rather a very thin smear.
|
|I thought that if I could master the art of Saffron Buns I could volunteer
|to bring them to the Christmas Party!
|
|Speaking to my Mum today about them she said that her Auntie in Moonta made
|the best ever saffron Buns and always won the prizes at the local shows
|with them. She would spread them with melted butter and sprinkle brown
|sugar over the top prior to cooking and added currants to them. So by the
|time Xmas arrives I may have them down to a fine art!!
