- Start with soaking saffron strands in 1 tbsp warm water. Wash and rinse the rice several times.
- In a wide pan, add butter along with spices and let them crackle.

LEMON DILL RICE
I found the basis for this recipe years ago and have revised it over the years. Try this tasty rice with fish or chicken. I prefer to use a good quality long grain rice, especially Jasmine, but any rice will do.

LEMON AND DILL SEASONING FOR FISH AND VEGETABLES
My simple flavor-enhancing seasoning doesn't overpower the natural flavors of fresh fish or vegetables. It can also be used for seasoned rice or rice pilaf (recipes below). To further compliment the flavors of fish, coat first lightly with olive oil, use seasoning -- add a small pinch of dried tarragon or crushed rosemary -- then cook as desired.

Steps:
- COMBINE all ingredients into a small container and shake well.
- STORE tightly sealed in a cool, dry place and shake well before using.
- SPRINKLE over fresh fish before baking, broiling, grilling or steaming, or over fresh vegetables before steaming.
- SUGGESTION TO FURTHER ENHANCE SEASONED FISH: Coat first lightly with olive oil before seasoning. Add a small pinch of dried tarragon or crushed rosemary, then cook as desired.
- TO PREPARE SEASONED RICE: Use 1 1/2 teaspoons Lemon and Dill Seasoning with each 1 cup water used for steaming rice. Or, you can use a portion of bouillon with water (2 cups water + 1 cup rice + 1 1/2 teaspoons Lemon and Dill Seasoning + 1 cube or teaspoon bouillon). To further compliment fish and seafood dishes add 1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon. Bring to a boil over stovetop for one minute. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork. Serves 4.
- TO PREPARE SEASONED RICE PILAF: Saute 1 tablespoon of 3/4-inch broken spaghetti or orzo pasta with 1 tablespoon slivered almonds in 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil until golden. Add 2 cups low-sodium broth, 1 1/2 teaspoons Lemon and Dill Seasoning, 1 cup rice, and 1 teaspoon capers if desired. Bring to a boil over stovetop for one minute. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork. For Greek-style pilaf add a pinch each dried crushed mint and oregano before boiling, then fluff rice with 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese after steaming. Serves 4.
GREEK LEMON AND DILL RICE WITH FETA (RICE COOKER)
From The Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook. The combination of dill and lemon is seen throughout Greek cooking, and is wonderful! The authors call for using a 6 cup rice cooker, but I've had no problems using my 3 cup model. Cooking time includes 20 minutes resting time for the rice. This can also be made with brown rice- just increase the chicken stock to 2 2/3 cups.

Reminiscent of flavors of the Middle East and surrounding area, in this recipe I substituted basmati rice; or use long grain white rice if basmati is not available. From Bon Appetit September 1997 with a few small changes.
