Chef's Notes
Do not rush the reduction or the resting phase. The steam is doing the heavy lifting here, turning humble basmati into royal fluffiness.
Pro Tip
Toast your nuts just until they smell nutty, not burnt! A split second too long and you will summon the bitter kitchen ghosts.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dare to peek beneath the Lid Sentinel's seal during the fourteen-minute simmer, and you shall unleash a flurry of dry, unevenly cooked grains, instantly banishing you from my royal court to wander the wasteland of soggy instant rice forever.

Royal Court Comedy
The Jester wonders if the saffron is made of ground-up gold coins, given how much we treat it like crown jewels!
