Pomegranate Saffron Rice

Features:
    Cuisine:

    You may notice that there are more than a few pomegranates in this preparation. I did crack open a pomegranate, and I was prepared to only use about half of the seeds. But, as I mixed them in, I realized that I loved the taste that the seeds added. So, the whole thing went into the dish. The rice is surrounded by homemade dim sum with a Chinese 5 Spice-infused dough.
