About Tadig

Tadig, also spelled Tahdig, is a beloved Persian dish known for its crispy, golden crust formed at the bottom of a rice pot. Made from simple ingredients like rice, oil, and sometimes yogurt, butter, or saffron, Tadig is often enriched with potatoes, bread, or thin lavash for additional texture. Originating from Iranian cuisine, it is often served alongside stews or as a standout centerpiece. While Tadig provides carbohydrates as an energy source, the high-fat content from oils or butter can make it calorie-dense. Using healthier oils like olive oil or controlling serving sizes can help make it more balanced. Saffron, commonly used in Tadig, adds not only vibrant color but also potential antioxidant benefits. This crispy, flavorful dish is a delicious indulgence tying tradition and taste in one bite.
