ragù allo zafferano con salsiccia e pomodori gialli

saffron ragù with sausage & yellow tomatoes

Here's a visually stunning sausage based ragù. Really important - only attempt it with yellow tomatoes (in the UK) if you are absolutely certain that they are the freshest, sweetest, most flavourful ones you can find. And go easy on the saffron - too much and your sauce will begin to taste antiseptic!
