A Rice Pudding Recipe and How to Make Rice Pudding and Other Rice Recipes

A rice pudding recipe comes to my mind when I think of desserts when I was growing up. Mom was not much into cooking rice as a main course. Often she would add rice to other dishes like soup but you might say we were a meat and potato family. Maybe it was our European heritage, but every meal had to have some form of potatoes. Mom did make a delicious rice pudding.

RICE PUDDING

• 5 Cups milk


• 2 ½ Cups white rice


• ½ Cup sugar


• 1 Teaspoon cinnamon


• ½ Cup raisins


• ½ Pint whipping cream


• 1 Teaspoon vanilla

Put milk, sugar and rice in a heavy saucepan. Heat on moderately high heat to boiling point, BUT NOT BOILING. Cover and steam for 50 minutes. Quickly add cinnamon, raisins and vanilla and stir. Turn off heat, cover pan again and let set on burner for 10 more minutes. Spoon pudding into desert dishes. And refrigerate until cold. Before serving, whip up the ½ pint of whipping cream and top each pudding with whipped cream.

RICE SALAD RECIPE

This is a good recipe to use leftover white rice.

• 1 Can drained crushed pineapple


• 1 Cup cold white rice


• 1/3 Cup coconut


• ¼ Cup seedless raisins


• ½ Cup whipping cream


• 2 Tablespoons sugar


• 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract


• ¼ Teaspoon powdered ginger


• ¼ Cup chopped nuts

Mix pineapple, rice coconut and raisins together in a bowl. In a mixer bowl beat the whipping cream, gradually adding the sugar, vanilla and ginger until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream mixture into the rice mixture, adding the nuts. Fold until blended and serve or refrigerate.
