Directions:
- Start a few hours ahead of time by preparing the rice by picking out any dark or discoloured grains and then washing in a colander until the water runs clear.
- Place the rice in a large bowl or pot with the salt and enough cold water to cover by an inch and soak for about 2 hours.
- Drain the rice, then bring the 2 quarts water to a boil over a high heat.
- Stirring constantly, pour the rice in a slow thin stream.
- Turn the heat down very low and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
- Stir in the sugar, then add the butter and saffron mixture and continue stirring until the sugar dissolves, the butter has melted and the rice is bright yellow.
- Stir in the slivered almonds and 1 tbsp of the pistachios and, stirring frequently, cook for 30 minutes longer or until the mixture can hold its shape almost solidly in the spoon.
- Stir in the rose water and ladle the mixture into a large, heatproof serving bowl.
- Spread it out with a spatula and sprinkle the top with two thin crossing lines of cinnamon to divide it into quarters.
- Sprinkle each quarter with the remaining 3 tbsp of pistachios and decorate with whole almonds.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the pudding is chilled and firm.
- Serve directly from the bowl.
