CHEF JOHN'S CLASSIC RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Place rice, salt, and water into a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat; sprinkle with sugar and pour in milk. Stir with a whisk until until the thin layer of cooked-on starch at the bottom of the pan is cleared and incorporated into the mixture, 2 or 3 minutes.
• Place pan over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it reaches your desired of level of doneness and creaminess, 8 to 10 minutes. The longer it cooks, the thicker and stickier it will be. Remove from heat. Add vanilla and cinnamon. Very quickly whisk in the egg yolk (to prevent it from cooking). Whisk for about 1 more minute. Add butter and dried cherries; stir thoroughly.
• Transfer warm pudding to serving dishes. Cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, 3 to 4 hours.

• In separate bowl combine sugar, cornstarch and salt.
• Add milk and sugar mixture to rice. Heat to boiling; boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Stir in butter and vanilla.
• Slowly stir about 1 cup of the hot rice mixture into beaten egg yolks in a bowl.

MINUTE RICE CLASSIC RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Combine milk, minute rice, sugar, raisins and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, uncovered 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Beat egg and vanilla with wire whisk until well blended. Add a small amount of the hot milk mixture; mix well. Return to saucepan; cook and stir on low heat 1 minute. (do not boil).
• Remove from heat. Let stand 30 minutes. Serve warm. Store any remaining pudding in refrigerator.

RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• At least one hour prior to making rice pudding, soak the raisins in the vanilla. A longer soak of over 24 hours is optimal.
• In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed saucepan, bring the milk, heavy cream, uncooked rice, and salt to a boil over high heat. As soon as it starts to simmer around the edge of the pan, reduce heat to the lowest temperature where you can maintain a simmer, partially covered, until the rice is tender, about 20-25 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Taste the rice to ensure it is done. You want it tender but still firm.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar. Add a ladel of the hot milk mixture to the egg mixture, whisking while pouring it in a very slow steady stream. Your goal is to bring the temperature of the egg up without curdling the egg.
• Continue to add more of the hot milk mixture to the egg mixture, whisking continually, until the egg mixture is warm.
• Add tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan of rice and milk and stir over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, until thickened. This rice pudding can go from thin to too thick rather quickly, so don't leave it unattended. Also keep in mind that it will thicken even more as it cools. A temperature of 160°F will ensure the eggs are cooked all the way through.
• When done, remove from heat and stir in the pumpkin pie spice and soaked raisins.
• Serve warm or cold.

CLASSIC RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Whisk together the egg, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Add the milk, cream, rice and salt to a medium-sized saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the rice is tender, about 20-25 minutes. Stir frequently to keep the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Slowly add about half a cup of the hot rice mixture to the egg mixture, whisking quickly, to temper the egg mixture.
• Add the egg mixture to the saucepan with the remaining rice mixture. Stir everything together and continue heating on low heat for about another 5-10 minutes, or until thickened. Don't boil. It will thicken quickly. Keep in mind that the mixture will continue to thicken as it cools, so you don't want it to be too thick before you take it off the heat. A touch soupy still is ok.
• Remove from heat and serve warm.

CLASSIC STOVE-TOP RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Use a 1 quart pot with cover.
• Place the rice and water into the pot, bring to a boil then simmer for few minutes, covered, until the rice absorbs the water. 
• Add milk, butter and salt and cook the rice on low heat, stirring constantly to avoid scorching.
• When the rice is almost cooked(about 10-15 minutes), add sugar and simmer for another 3-4 minutes.
• Add vanilla, lemon zest and stir to combine.
• The best way to know if the rice pudding is cooked is by tasting the grain. You want the rice to be cooked but still "al dente".
• Remove the pudding from the heat and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes. The rice will absorb the rest of the liquid and become thicker and creamier.
• Serve the rice pudding in cups and decorate with cinnamon, pieces of fruit, your favorite jam, dried fruits etc.

CLASSIC RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In 1 1/2-quart saucepan, heat rice and 1 cup water to boiling, stirring once or twice. Reduce heat to low. Cover; simmer 14 minutes (do not lift cover or stir). All water should be absorbed; if not, drain excess water.
• Heat oven to 325°F In ungreased 1 1/2-quart casserole, beat eggs with wire whisk or fork. Stir in hot rice and remaining pudding ingredients except cinnamon. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
• Bake uncovered 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Top of pudding will be very wet and not set. Overbaking may cause pudding to curdle.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, mix 3 tablespoons granulated sugar and the cornstarch. Stir in 1/3 cup water and the raspberries. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. If desired, strain sauce through strainer into bowl to remove seeds. Keep warm or refrigerate until serving time.
• Remove pudding from oven. Stir well; let stand 15 minutes. Enough liquid will be absorbed while standing to make pudding creamy. Meanwhile, in chilled medium bowl, beat whipped cream ingredients with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
• Serve pudding warm with warm sauce and whipped cream, or refrigerate pudding covered about 3 hours or until chilled, then serve with cooled sauce and whipped cream. Store pudding covered in refrigerator; sauce can be stored covered in refrigerator up to 10 days.

MARY BERRY'S CLASSIC RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• 1. You will need a 1.6-litre (2¾-pint) wide-based ovenproof dish, well greased. Preheat the oven to 160°C/140°C fan/Gas 3. 2. Tip the rice into the dish. Heat the milk in a saucepan (see tip) and pour over the rice, then add the sugar and stir to combine. 3. Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes. Stir gently and sprinkle with a dusting of nutmeg, if you like. Continue cooking for a further 1¼-1½ hours until a golden skin has formed on top and the rice is soft and tender underneath. Serve hot. MARY'S EVERYDAY TIPS: Full-fat milk gives the best rich flavour, though semi-skimmed would be fine too. If you only have semi-skimmed, add a little less and make up the full amount with cream. Heating the milk gets the cooking going.
