Been trying some new and what I find complicated recipes, fun yes which is great but my new found interest is creating a dent in the pocket. Next recipe I want to try asks for saffron, which is quite expansive. So on suggestion from a friend I am going to use a mixture of turmeric and paprika instead. That taken care of what other suggestions are there for expansive cooking ingredients?
So far what I have come across is using vanilla extract instead of vanilla beans, it works out cheaper and gives close enough results. One more from me, using a mixture of red wine vinegar and honey as a substitute for balsamic vinegar.
Anyone knowing any more tricks please do share :)

First time I have come across someone who grows weeds :)
As for doing the dishes well hardly know anyone who like doing those, God bless the person who invented dishwashers!
