Since it’s getting cold outside – and unfortunately, I’m not in sunny El Salvador – I’ve prepared one of my favorite comfort dishes. Can you guess the simple ingredients used for this? 🍂 The first step: grind up some saffron! The most common kitchen mistake is skipping this step. I always add a pinch of salt to the grinder for an ultra-fine saffron powder. 🌾 Next, pour boiling water over the saffron powder. This step is crucial to release all the flavors—just like brewing a good black tea. 🍵 Heat up a pot, melt some (or a lot like me) butter, and roast the lamb shanks to get that golden aroma! Cooking whole lamb shanks is healthy: the bones, marrow, and cartilage release nutrients like collagen, amino acids, and minerals that are great for your joints and overall vitality. 🍖 Flip those shanks! We need flavor! In French cuisine, ""sucs"" are the caramelized residues left in the pan after browning food, perfect for building rich sauces through deglazing. That’s exactly what we want! 🍳 Throw in the chopped onions—red and white! This is my way of layering different levels of flavor into the dish. 🧅 Season the pot with salt, pepper, and turmeric. Simple spices, bold results! 🌟 Toss in the dried plums! They don’t just add a hint of sweetness—they’re potassium-packed, helping regulate blood pressure and supporting heart health. ❤️ Pour the saffron liquid over the lamb shanks to elevate the flavors even more. ✨ Close the lid and let it simmer on low heat for 4 hours, flipping the lamb shanks every 30 minutes. Slow cooking is the secret to tenderness! ⏳ The result? Super tender lamb shanks with meat falling off the bone and a slightly sweet, savory sauce. Traditionally served with saffron rice and tahdig—but that secret is saved for Satoshi’s Kitchen Cookbook! 🍽️ Are you loving these step-by-step instructions straight from Satoshi’s Kitchen? 🍴🔥 If you want more delicious Bitcoin-inspired recipes, show some love—like and retweet to let me know! 🧡 https://m.primal.net/MYGd.jpg https://m.primal.net/MYGm.jpg https://m.primal.net/MYGn.jpg
