What it is

Taif's white risotto: short-grain rice cooked down with milk and butter into a creamy, porridge-soft dish, served with grilled chicken and a ghee gloss. Ingredients: short-grain rice, milk, butter, salt, mastic (a grain, optional), grilled or roasted chicken, ghee, honey (a Taif drizzle in some homes). Recipe: 1) Boil rice in water until very soft. 2) Add milk gradually, stirring, until creamy like risotto. 3) Season with salt and butter. 4) Serve with chicken and melted ghee poured over. Serve: in the cool mountain city of Taif, whose saleeg is famous across the Hijaz. Flavor: milky, buttery, soothing. History: saleeg is Hijazi home cooking at its purest — likely refined with South Asian and Ottoman currents through Jeddah's port. See also: Kabsa, Jareesh.
