Saute until onion is tender and rice is lightly browned. Place in a slow cooker and add chicken broth and saffron; stir well. Cover and cook on low setting 4 to 5 hours, or until water is absorbed.

I love cooking with saffron. It all started with wanting to make my friend saffron rice; from there, a new recipe was born.

If you are running short of time, then a good, effective rice cooker is your best friend. Not only can it help you make rice and other savoury meals, but also it can help you make your desserts ...
