Some days back in Rio, still thinking about the great time I had in Johannesburg and Dubai. Here are some pictures from the large fish market in the old part of Dubai:
and the spice and pulses market next door:
I could not resist but to buy some nuts and pine kernels as well as some Iranian saffron which was weighed the traditional way:
what a perfect ingredient to lift up any pasta cream sauce!

The pasta with salmon in saffron sauce looks quite tantalizing. What I love though about the ingredients in this recipe is the inclusion of wine. Most of the dishes cooked with wine often have a unique flavor and I think that this dish would be no exception.
