Saffron Rice

A generous pinch of Saffron Threads
2 cups Uncooked Long Grain Rice (not the 5 minute kind)

Measure 4 cups water into a medium saucepan. Add saffron threads. Cover and bring to boil. Add rice, stir to mix in saffron. Cover and reduce heat. Boil for 15 minutes. If needed, remove lid and stir rice to prevent over-boiling and to better mix in saffron. Remove from heat (do not uncover). Let stand for 5 more minutes. Remove lid, stir to fluff rice. Serve immediately. Makes 3 to 4 cups of cooked rice.

This recipe can be adjusted in a 2:1 ratio of water to rice. 4 cups water to 2 cups rice, 2 cups water to 1 cup rice, etc. Add saffron to taste.
