- 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
One of series ten's best episodes.
Jessica is invited to the opening of a new restaurant, she is less than happy with the behaviour of head chef Bernardo Bonelli, ever the professional, Jessica knuckles down and gets on with the job......investigating murser.
I have to be honest, this has been my favourite episode so far from the tenth series, I loved that storyline, loved the acting and characters, and it was so nice to see Jessica back in her element, climbing over crime scenes and giving The Police her special brand of 'help.'
I loved the contrast between studio and restaurant,
There's that classic death scene with the hand on the knife, this episode really does feel like an earlier offering.
The acting was spot on, John Saxon and Michael Brandon were both superb. A really good supporting cast.
I loved that advertisement sequence, and being a Brit I'm naturally horrified by America's intense medication advertising.
Classic episode.
9/10.
