Chef's Notes
Do not skip the resting time in Step 6. Steaming the spinach via residual heat keeps its color bright green instead of turning it into a sad, muddy khaki.
Pro Tip
Toast your slivered almonds in a dry skillet for precisely two minutes before sprinkling them on top to unlock a nutty aroma that will make your neighbors jealous.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you crank the heat too high during the simmer, your liquid will evaporate before the rice absorbs it, leaving you with a scorched bottom pan and crunchy, inedible grains that taste like campfire smoke.

The Culinary Science
