Forget it! I'm da king when it comes to making Cuban rice. I'm a perfectionists when it comes to making Cuban food. Arroz amarillo, arroz con pollo, congri, arroz con salchicha, arroz con pitipuah (petite pea). No el salcocho ese que hacen por ahi. Mi arroz es bien desgranadito como la arena. No smushi.. Man, oh man. Finger licking good.

poor man's saffron..nice!..i'll use that when i make arroz a la valenciana instead of just food coloring..

fyi: arroz a ala valenciana is pretty similar to this. we just put more ingredients like pork, chicken, shrimp, dried grapes, and red bell pepper..it doesn't have tomato sauce..and we use water with pineapple juice instead of chicken stock/broth..
