    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 package Chocolate instant pudding
    1 Cool Whip or Whipped Cream

    Make the pudding according to package directions. Fold it into some Cool Whip
    or Whipped Cream. Refrigerate. Eat.

    Notes from Brett Jones: "…first, you get something that tastes almost
    exactly
    like the real thing and second, it always sets (unless you add too much whipped
    cream!) and is rarely grainy.

    Variations: Swirl a little raspberry jam through it or add your favorite
    liqueur.

    -or rock candy (opt)

    “The Legendary Cuisine of Persia” by Margaret Shields, would accompany
    roast lamb or chicken or occupy center stage at a Near Eastern
    banquet.

    Cover rinsed rice with water by at least 1“. Add 1 tablespoon salt.
    Soak 3 hours.

    In skillet, fry carrot strips in 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat,
    stirring constantly, 10 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon granulated sugar,
    2 teaspoon Liquid Saffron and 2-3 tablespoons water. Cook until
    liquid is reduced, 4-5 minutes. Remove carrot strips to bowl and set
    aside.

    In skillet, toast 1 teaspoon almonds over medium heat. Set aside for
    garnish. Put remaining almonds and all pistachios in small saucepan,
    cover with cold water, bring to boil and drain. Set aside. Combine 1
    teaspoon blanched almonds, 1 teaspoon blanched pistachios and
    reserved toasted almonds for garnish.

    Put remaining granulated sugar in small saucepan with 6 tablespoons
    water. Bring slowly to boil and simmer gently 10 minutes. Add orange
    peel and remaining blanched nuts and boil 30 seconds. Drain,
    reserving syrup. Add peel and nuts to fried carrot strips.

    Soak currants in warm water 10 minutes until puffed and shining.
    Drain. Separate 1 teaspoon currants for garnish and add remainder to
    carrot strip mixture. Pick over barberries, then gently fry in
    skillet in small amount of oil until glowing red color, 1-2 minutes.
    Separate 1 teaspoon barberries for garnish and add remainder to
    carrot strip mixture. Stir cinnamon, cardamom and rose water into
    carrot strip mixture and divide mixture into 3 parts.

    In 3 quart saucepan add 2 quarts water and 3 tablespoons salt and
    bring to rapid boil. Drain soaked rice. Add to saucepan, bring back
    to boil and boil until grains are soft on outside but still firm in
    center, 2-3 minutes. Drain in colander and rinse with lukewarm water.
    Toss gently in colander.

    Rinse saucepan, return to heat, add some oil and heat until sizzling.
    Sprinkle 1/4 of rice over bottom of saucepan. Spread 1/2 of carrot
    mixture on rice. Sprinkle 1/4 of rice over carrot mixture. Repeat
    with remaining carrot mixture and rice, ending with thick layer of
    rice formed into conical mound. Pour remaining syrup and 4 teaspoons
    Liquid Saffron over rice. Make 2-3 holes through rice to bottom of
    saucepan with handle of wooden spoon. Spread clean dishcloth over
    edges of saucepan and set cover firmly over dishcloth.

    Keep heat on high until rice is steaming, 2-3 minutes, then reduce
    heat to low and cook at least 30 minutes. Rice can be kept on very
    lowest heat as long as 1 1/2 hours total.

    Remove saucepan from heat and set on cold, wet surface 1-2 minutes.
    (This helps loosen bottom crust.)

    Meanwhile, melt butter. Remove 2-3 tablespoons rice and mix with
    remaining 2 tablespoons Liquid Saffron in small bowl and set aside.

    Gently toss and mix pilaf, leaving crust in pot, and sprinkle on
    warmed dish in symmetrical mound. Sprinkle with saffron rice. Garnish
    with reserved almonds (both toasted and blanched), pistachios,
    currants and barberries.

    Crush crystallized sugar into small ”diamonds," mix with 1/2 teaspoon
    boiling water and sprinkle over rice. Pour melted butter all over.
    Remove bottom crust (tah dig) from pot and serve on separate plate.
