Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 finely chopped onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 4 minutes.

EASY SAFFRON RICE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Pour the stock into a medium-sized pot with a tight-fitting lid. Place the pot on the stove over high heat.
• While the stock is coming to a boil, add the turmeric, saffron, chile (if using), and a squeeze of lemon or lime juice. Stir well.
• Add the rice plus 1 1/2 tablespoons fish sauce (or 1/4 teaspoon salt) and stir. Bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to low and cover tightly with a lid. Cook 12 to 15 minutes, or until liquid has been absorbed by the rice. (Insert a fork or knife straight down into the pot and push the rice aside. If you see liquid, it still needs more time to cook.)
• When most of the liquid is gone, turn off the heat and place the lid on tightly. Allow the pot to remain on the burner for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until you're ready to eat. The residual heat inside the pot will finish steaming the rice. The rice will stay warm in this way for 1 hour or more.
• Before serving, remove the lid and fluff rice with chopsticks or a fork. Taste test for salt, adding 1/2 tablespoon more fish sauce or a little more salt if needed (the amount will depend on the saltiness of your stock). If the rice tastes too salty, add another squeeze of lemon juice.

IRANIAN YELLOW RICE WITH SAFFRON

Steps:

• For the rice: Sprinkle the saffron on the ice cubes in a small bowl and let sit at room temperature until the ice is completely melted, about 1 hour. This is your bloomed saffron.
• Meanwhile, rinse the rice a few times until the water runs clean.
• Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add half the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Add 3 1/4 cups water and the bloomed saffron, then turn the heat to medium high.
• Bring the liquid to a boil, then lower the heat to medium. Cover the pan and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• For the topping: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the raisins and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed and slightly softened, about 2 minutes (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
• When the rice is ready, remove from the heat and let sit for 5 minutes so it can finish steaming. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a serving plate. Top with the onion and raisin mixture and serve.

INDIAN SAFFRON RICE

Steps:

• Steep the saffron in 1/2 cup boiling water.
• In a skillet that can be tightly covered, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Stir in the rice and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the rice begins to absorb the butter and becomes opaque, but do not brown the rice.
• Quickly pour in the remaining 1 1/2 cups boiling water along with the saffron water. Cover immediately, reduce heat to low, and cook 20 minutes, or until all of the liquid is absorbed. For best results, do not remove the lid while the rice is cooking.

SAFFRON RICE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice under cool water until the water runs clear. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan, and add the salt. Add the rice to the boiling water, and continue to boil, uncovered, for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain well, and return the rice to the pot. Add the butter and 3 tablespoons of water, cover tightly, and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the rice sit for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pound the saffron threads to a powder using a mortar and pestle. Add 2 teaspoons hot water and stir to combine. Remove 1/3 cup of the rice from the pan and put it in a small bowl. Add the saffron water to the rice and stir until the rice is stained yellow. (Or if your mortar is large enough, add the rice directly to the saffron water in the mortar.) There shouldn't be any excess liquid. If there is, pour off the liquid. Return the rice to the pan, and stir gently to fluff and combine the white and golden grains of rice.
• notes
• Alternatively, add the pounded saffron to the pot along with the butter, rather than making a saffron-infused water. This way, the rice will be evenly yellow, as opposed to a mixture of white and golden grains of rice.
• Add 1/3 cup golden raisins or currants to the rice along with the butter, and stir in 1/3 cup chopped toasted almonds or toasted pine nuts just before serving.
