The Greek recipe yiouvetsi is a baked pasta dish typically made with orzo and lamb. This version has a twist, with shrimp and the delicious combination of Greek saffron and curry, petimezi and Greek oregano.
Krokos Kozanis, or saffron, has flavored the foods and drinks of Greece forever. The tiny crocus flower from which saffron is harvested grows wild on Greek islands and has been prized since Minoan times. All Greek saffron is now cultivated in the damp, chilly climate of Kozani in Macedonia, Northern Greece. Time-tested and delicious, it’s one of the finest saffrons in the world.
