Wash rice in 3 changes of water to remove all of the starch. Bring rice, water, butter and salt to boil in large pot. Add butter and pinch salt, then bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until soft but not mushy, about 30 minutes. Add sugar, rose water and saffron. Cook, stirring often to prevent sticking on bottom, until rice breaks up and is consistency of polenta, 15 to 20 minutes. Turn into serving bowls and garnish with almonds. Yields 12 servings.
