Is there a difference between 'safran' and 'saffron' ? We purchased a small package of Safran at a Moroccan market in San Diego, and look forward learning how to use it.

I love the couscous. But it sounds hard. I just through using a teacher evaluation that involved hardly any effort, it was so nice to have something that was easy! This looks so delicious, and I'm gonna go for it, but I sure wish I didn't have to work so hard ;) Thanks for the recipe :)
