  • I’m really amped to share this one - today is all about CRISPY MF RICE!!! Though many cultures have a version of crispy rice, this recipe and technique is largely borrowed from Persian Tahdig (“tah-deeg.) There are many ways to make this dish, I’ve tried a bunch of techniques and I’ve found this one to be the best through trial and error. Use the best quality basmati rice you can get your hands on for this - extra puntos if you purchase from a Middle-Eastern grocery store 🔌🔌🔌.
    Tahdig, or many versions of it have become a go-to dish of mine over the past couple years. I sound like I work for a corny cooking mag when I say this but… this dish really is sure to “wow” your dinner guests - there’s something magical about flipping over the rice and unveiling it to a crowd. Just writing this has my legs quivering in excitement… I need help, I’m aware. As per usual, let me know if any of you decide to make this and tag me on social if you do. Get cookin’, squad! 🤘🏻Adam

    You ruined that saffron like no other. Thats not how you're supposed to use. You need to grind it, and then throw in an ice cube and let it sit. You should never throw saffron in rice the way you did. Not only are you wasting precious saffron, but you won't also get as much color out evenly.

    1. Adding the yoghurt is ONLY necessary when you are cooking TAHCHIN which is whole other beast/dish! Please don't!
    2. No need to fry the bottom first! Take your time, reduce the heat, reduce the fat and you will have the same result.
    3. Safran is super expensive. It needs to be a powder and boiled with extremely hot water in order to develop its full potential in color and taste! You are wasting it!
    4. I couldn't care less for the fusion "Asian touch" (which is a cultural crime). Tahdig is eaten traditionally with a side of plain yoghurt or "Torshi" or a classic Persian Shirazi Salad! (google it)
    5. Tahdig comes in many variations (potato, bread etc.)
    Nice try though
