Saffron is a bittersweet spice. The flavor should be very very mild, if used correctly in a recipe. When soaked, some people say it has a hint of a honey flavor. When used plain, some people say it reminds them of band-aids. If you are using it just for color in a meal, you may be better off using turmeric. If you opt for the saffron, try soaking it in a small amount of warm water or white wine to free up the flavors.
