PERSIAN TAHDIG RICE

Persian rice is made differently from the standard way I learned how to make rice. It is boiled in plenty of water, drained, then steamed and crisped with butter and a little more water. The plentiful water takes the starchy flavor out of the rice, and if you are lucky, you will get some nice crispy rice on the bottom, which is a little sweet. It takes a little longer to cook to get the tahdig, so I don't always bother.

Steps:

  • Grind saffron threads with sugar in a mortar and pestle. Transfer to a bowl and dissolve in boiling water. Set aside to soak.
  • Wash starch from the rice by rinsing it in a nonstick 4-quart pot. Rinse 3 or 4 times in lukewarm water until water runs clear. Fill the pot 3/4 full with cold water, covering the rice. Bring to a boil. Add olive oil and cook until rice is soft on the outside and still crunchy in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Drain rice and rinse with cool water. Set aside. Rinse any excess rice starch out of the pot.
  • Melt butter in the clean, dry pot. Mound rice over the butter; add enough water to reach 1/3 of the height of the rice. Sprinkle salt over the rice. Wrap the lid with a kitchen towel and cover the pot to seal tightly. Simmer over medium heat until all water is absorbed and a crispy crust starts to form on the bottom, about 10 minutes.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork while turning it out on a plate. Measure 1 cup rice and mix with the saffron water. Scatter saffron rice over plain rice. Detach the layer of crust, or 'tahdig', from the bottom of the pot and serve in a separate dish as a special treat.

  • Parboil the rice (boil for less time than described in the packet instructions). Meanwhile, If using a potato, peel and slice about 7mm thick. Optional: prepare the liquid saffron by grinding the saffron into a powder (you can add a little sugar to help) and mix with 3 tbsp hot water. Leave to use later. Once the rice is cooked until edible but not too soft, drain and quickly rinse with cold water. You are going to cook to steam the rice next...
  • On medium heat, cover the base of a deep pan with oil and sprinkle in the salt. Once sizzling hot, you can momentarily take away from the heat for safety, place the potatoes or flat bread on the base of the pan: Either - If the tortilla is larger than the pan base, trim it to fit. Or - Lie the potato slices so that as much of the base is covered as possible. Chop up the remaining pieces to fit into gaps. You can place small extra pieces of potato on top but should generally stick to a single layer.
  • If you took the pan off the heat, put it back on to keep the oil hot. With a serving spoon, sprinkle the rice on top and build into a dome shape, pulling away from the sides to avoid burning. Cover with a lid wrapped in a table cloth to allow the rice to steam.
  • If you are using potatoes, cook on high heat for 2-3 mins then turn to low heat. If you are using bread, turn immediately to low heat. Cook for around 25 minutes. Of course, if you smell burning remove from the heat - the time can depend on how thick the base of your pan is.

  • Mix the saffron into 1 cup very warm (but not hot) water. Let sit for at least 10 minutes to let the saffron release all of its flavor.
  • In a large pot, combine 8 cups of water and the salt (this is your one shot to season the rice itself). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the rice and cook until al dente, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain the rice.
  • In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of the cooked rice, the yogurt, grapeseed oil, and 2 tbsp of the saffron water. Mix thoroughly.
