    Moroccan Saffron Rice, Easy an tasty side dish, the pistachio’s are optional but oh, so good!, I followed the recipe to the t but I thought it was bland I rarely cook with saffron so I don’t know if saffron is a mild spice or not? The addition of the pistachios were very yummy! Made for ZWT for the Gourmet Goddesses July 2013
