Instructions

1. 1 Place crushed pineapple with juice, pears, carrots, flaked coconut, raisins, lemon juice, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in a large pot over medium heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until pears are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ raisin
• basmati rice
• kosher salt
• saffron
• water
• roasted noodle
• grapeseed oil
• kosher salt
• potato
• water
• butter
• butter
• medjool date
• cinnamon

Instructions

1. 1 Place rice in a medium bowl and cover with tepid water. Gently swish it around with your finger to activate the starches, then tip the bowl to drain water. Repeat this process until water runs clear, about 7 rinses. Cover rice with cold water, add 1/2 tablespoon salt, stir gently, and soak for 1 hour. Drain rice without rinsing.
2. 2 Crush saffron threads to a powder in a small mortar and pestle. Transfer to a small bowl with 2 tablespoons boiling water. Stir, cover, and set saffron water aside.
3. 3 Fill a 5-quart nonstick pot with 9 cups water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons salt and stir until dissolved. Break roasted noodles into thirds and add to boiling water with rice. Stir once gently, and watch carefully as it cooks so water does not boil over. Taste water for salt and adjust accordingly. Cook until first rice grain pops up to the surface. Set a timer for 4 minutes and cook, scooping off any foam from the surface until the timer goes off. Test rice and continue to cook until tender on the outside but still firm to the bite on the inside, 6 to 8 minutes more.
4. 4 Drain rice and noodles in a colander and rinse quickly with lukewarm water and a spray faucet to rinse off extra starch. Taste and gently rinse again if too salty. Set aside to drain completely. Wash and dry the pot.
5. 5 Place the clean pot over medium heat. Add oil, 1 tablespoon saffron water, and a pinch of salt; swirl the pot until the bottom and lower sides are coated with the oil mixture. Tightly overlap potato slices in a single layer covering the bottom of the pot to create the tahdig layer.
6. 6 Gently scatter rice-noodle mixture over the tahdig in a pyramid shape, making sure potatoes are completely covered and moving noodles away from the sides of the pot. Gently poke the handle of a wooden spoon into rice and noodles a few times, being careful not to hit tahdig; this will allow steam to escape while cooking. Cover and cook until you see steam escaping from the sides of the lid and tahdig starts to set, about 10 minutes.
7. 7 Meanwhile, combine 1/4 cup boiling water with 2 tablespoons melted butter and remaining saffron water. Lay a kitchen towel out on a heatproof surface.
8. 8 Test tahdig by quickly tapping the side of the pot with a wooden spoon. When the pot sizzles, remove it from the heat. Remove the lid and place it on the kitchen towel, being careful that none of the condensation drips into the pot. Wrap the towel around the lid and secure the ends at the top by the handle so they will not hang near the heat source. Drizzle butter mixture over rice and cover with the towel-wrapped lid.
9. 9 Place a heat diffuser on a burner over low or medium-low heat and return the pot to the stove. Cook until crispy, rotating the pot a few times, about 35 minutes. Remove from the heat and place on a damp kitchen towel; let sit, uncovered, for 5 minutes so tahdig will release easily.
10. 10 Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add dates, raisins, and cinnamon; sprinkle with a little salt. Cook and stir until dates are glistening and soft, 3 to 5 minutes.
11. 11 Gently scatter rice on a platter and remove potato tahdig pieces and serve on the side. Sprinkle raisin-date sauce over top.

Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
3. 3 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
4. 4 Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool dark area.

Ingredients

• ✓ raisin
• cinnamon roll dough
• glaze

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2 Unroll 1 cinnamon roll dough and cut in half. Roll 1 half to form the "body." Rotate roll so the outer end of roll is facing downward; this will form the bunny's "front legs." Cut off 1/3 of the remaining dough and roll it up to form the "tail." Roll up the last 2/3 of the dough to about the halfway point to form the "head." Slice through remaining unrolled portion and fan out the pieces to form the "ears."
3. 3 To attach the "tail" and "head" to the "body", rub away any cinnamon coating, wet dough, and press the pieces together. Spread out the "ears" and pinch them at the tips to shape. Transfer the "bunny" to the prepared baking sheet by carefully lifting with a spatula or scraper. Repeat with remaining rolls.
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Slide parchment paper with "bunnies" onto a wire rack to cool slightly.
5. 5 Spread glaze onto warm "bunnies," following the pattern of the swirls and ears. Press a raisin into the center of the swirl on the head to form the "eyes."

Ingredients

• ✓ raisin
• whiskey
• brown sugar
• beef sirloin steak
• canola oil

Instructions

1. 1 Place raisins, whiskey, and brown sugar into a resealable plastic bag.

6. 6 Cook steaks until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, 5 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
7. 7 Serve the steaks with the raisins.

Ingredients

• ✓ raisin
• dark rum
• vanilla ice cream
• nutmeg

Instructions

1. 1 Place raisins in a small bowl, pour rum on top, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to steep overnight.
2. 2 The next day, remove ice cream from the freezer; let stand at room temperature until softened but not melting, about 15 minutes.
3. 3 Scoop ice cream into a large bowl. Stir in rum-soaked raisins, any extra rum in the bowl, and nutmeg until ice cream is well combined. The rum will soften the ice cream and make mixing easier.
4. 4 Pack flavored ice cream back into the carton; refreeze until needed, at least 30 minutes.
