  1. How did you make the saffron rice? Was it already seasoned or did you buy saffron?

  3. I made it using a recipe I found on about.com:
    http://thaifood.about.com/od/quickeasythairecipes/r/saffronricecooker.htm

    I didn't post the recipe because the proportions were wrong. The seasoning part was good, but you don't add anywhere near enough liquid. I had to keep adding chicken broth so it would cook properly.

  4. Oh, okay. Just curious :) I am signed in but it won't let me use my name. "Unknown (Google)" is my only option other than livejournal or AIM, etc.
