Jasmine rice with saffron is a fragrant and flavorful dish originating from Middle Eastern and South Asian cuisines. This aromatic combination features long-grain jasmine rice infused with the golden hue and earthy notes of saffron, a precious spice known for its distinctive taste and antioxidants. Often cooked with a touch of olive oil or butter, it may include mild seasonings such as garlic or onion to enhance its complexity. Jasmine rice is a rich source of carbohydrates, providing energy, but has a high glycemic index, making portion control important for balanced diets. Saffron contributes small amounts of vitamins and minerals while adding natural compounds that may support mood and reduce inflammation. Low in fat and free of gluten, this dish offers a nutritious yet indulgent option when prepared mindfully, especially when paired with lean proteins or vegetables.
