- GoofsManuel says that turmeric and saffron have "about the same flavor". This is incorrect. Saffron has a more refined, savory flavor, while turmeric is very pungent and odorous, and it can repeat afterwards, where one can taste it again in a most unpleasant fashion. Saffron is as delicate as it is rare, and for discerning palates. Turmeric is as overpowering a flavor as it is common, and anyone can afford it, therefore it shows up in many dishes. Saffron is dainty and elegant, turmeric is odoriferous and lacking in sophistication. A professionally trained chef like Manuel should know there is no commonality in taste between the two.

Featured review
Everyone will come to Bonelli's
This episode of MSW has Jessica Fletcher guesting on celebrity chef John Saxon's
cooking show where they are both selling her latest book with a recipe that
was spiked with poison, in the book. It's whipped up and enjoyed on the show.
Saxon is also hawking a new restaurant of his own that will open soon and on the strength of his name and reputation he hopes it will be a success. But he needs financing from racketeer Tony LoBianco who is moving in on the business.
During the course of things both Saxon and LoBianco get murdered the chef with poison and the racketeer with two bullets.
This particular episode showed some downright hostility between Angela Lansbury and NYC Detective Fran Bennett. Nevertheless when Jessica Fletcher realizes the significance of an ordinary item left by Saxon's body the whole thing falls in place.
Hope the restaurant was a tribute success to its late owner.
