SWEET CREAMY BAKED RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Set oven to 300 degrees.
• Butter a baking dish with a lid, large enough to hold the mixture (I use my White Corning ware oval baking dish for this).
• Place all the ingredients (except raisins) in a baking dish; mix to combine.
• To speed the oven cooking time up, you can bring to a simmer on top of the stove if desired over medium heat.
• Cover with a lid and place in the oven to bake for about 2 hours (could take more or less time) stirring a couple of times while cooking.
• Add in raisins the last 30 minutes of cooking.
• *NOTE* the mixture will thicken even more after cooking.

PORTUGUESE SWEET RICE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over high heat combine sugar and milk. When bubbles form at the edges, stir in rice and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook 60 minutes, stirring often, until rice is tender. Do not allow to boil.
• Remove from heat and vigorously stir in beaten eggs, a little at a time, until well incorporated. Serve warm.

THAI BLACK RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Place rice in a bowl and rinse with water by stirring in a counter clockwise motion.
• Do this repeatedly until the water is clear and clean, indicating the rice is clean.
• Pick out any odd grains.
• In a medium saucepan, stir rice, salt, sugar and water and bring to a boil.
• Stir well and reduce heat to low.
• Cover and simmer gently for 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours until all of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
• Stir in the coconut milk and serve immediately as a hot dish.
• Or chill and serve cold.

TRINIDAD SWEET RICE RECIPE (CARIBBEAN RICE PUDDING)

Steps:

• Wash rice with several changes of water until water is clear. Drain.
• In a medium stock pot, add water, rice, cinnamon stick and ginger (cardamom if using). Bring to a boil over high heat uncovered. Once it comes to a boil, immediately reduce heat to medium. Cook until rice is cooked but still firm, about 15-20 minutes. If it's still not soft and tender after that time, add additional 1 cup of water and continue to cook.
• Add whole milk [and optional ingredients] and cook until most of the milk is absorbed (about 5-10 minutes), stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
• Add evaporated milk and cook, stirring constantly, until that boils down, about 5-10 minutes, maybe more depending on your burner.
• Add condensed milk and cook, stirring constantly, until it thickens but not totally evaporated, another 15-20 minutes. I recommend cooking on a very low heat until the color begins to darken slightly. This way the flavors develop even further. Always check to make sure the bottom is not burning.
• Remove cinnamon stick (and whole cardamoms and cloves if you used those ingredients) before serving.
• Enjoy hot, warm or cold, alone, or with fresh fruit...and if you are a real Trini, eat it with Dhalpourie roti.

SWEET RICE

Steps:

• Bring the rice, butter, and water to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Whisk together 2 cups of milk, flour, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract in a bowl, and pour the milk mixture over the cooked rice. Stir to combine, and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Stir in 1 cup whole milk, the cream, raisins, and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed, and allow to cool for a few minutes. Serve warm or cold.

HOW TO MAKE THE ABSOLUTE EASIEST RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Measure out the rice and milk. Place 1 cup uncooked short-grain or long-grain white rice, or 3 cups cooked rice in a large saucepan. Add 4 cups milk for uncooked rice, 3 cups milk for cooked rice.
• Add the flavorings. Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. If using vanilla bean, scrape the seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean and add the seeds and the pod into the saucepan. If using vanilla bean paste, add 1 1/2 teaspoons. Add any desired add-ins.
• Bring to a simmer. Bring the mixture to a vigorous simmer over medium-high heat, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula so that the rice does not stick.
• Simmer until the rice is tender. Reduce the heat to maintain a bare simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is very tender and the mixture starts to thicken, 20 to 22 minutes for uncooked rice, 10 to 12 minutes for cooked rice.
• Add the butter and vanilla extract. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract if using and 1 tablespoon unsalted butter if desired until melted. Remove the vanilla bean pod if needed. Taste and add more sugar as desired.
• Serve the rice pudding. The rice pudding will continue to thicken as it cools. Thin out with more milk if desired, and serve warm or cold.

THE CREAMIEST RICE PUDDING RECIPE

Steps:

• Into a medium saucepan over low heat add in all of the above ingredients and allow to come to a gentle simmer.
• Cook on low for roughly 35-40 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid has thickened but not absorbed fully. Stir occasionally.
• Remove from the heat while the rice pudding is still quite 'saucy' and allow to sit for 20 minutes. During this time the rice will continue to absorb the liquid leaving you with a rich and creamy rice pudding.
• Serve warm or cold with a dollop of raspberry jam on top.
• Once cold, store in the fridge for up to 4 days.

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.

KHEER (RICE PUDDING)

Steps:

• Bring the coconut milk, milk and sugar to a boil in a large saucepan. Add Basmati rice, and simmer over low heat until the mixture thickens and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the raisins, cardamom and rose water, and cook for a few more minutes. Ladle into serving bowls, and garnish with almonds and pistachios.

SWEET RICE

• With two separate pans.
• One pan cook rice with water.
• Second pan cook milk and sugar until very hot.
• Mix cooked rice with milk and sugar mixture.
• It's very good!

SWEET RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Place the rice in a medium-sized bowl. Fill the bowl with cold water and swirl the rice around to help remove the starch.
• Carefully pour off the water, making sure not to pour out the rice that has settled to the bottom. Repeat this step 7-8 times, or until the water is clear.
• Fill the bowl with enough cold water to cover the rice by 2 inches. Let the rice soak for 30 minutes.
• Drain the rice and set aside.
• Place the milk in a 6-8- quart pan over medium heat, uncovered, and bring to a boil. This will take about 10-12 minutes. Watch it carefully so it does not boil over, and stir frequently to prevent scorching.
• Add the drained rice. Return it to a boil. This will take 1-2 minutes.
• Reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes. The rice will absorb the milk as it cooks and thickens. Stir frequently, occasionally mashing the rice with a whisk.
• If the rice sticks, lower the heat.
• After almost all the milk has been absorbed and the rice is very tender, add the sugar and ground cardamom. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
• Pour the rice into a heat-proof bowl. Let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Cover and chill completely.
• When ready to serve, spoon the chilled dessert into individual serving dishes and garnish with the pistachios, raisins, and sliced almonds.

THAI RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place the rice in a large pot and add 2 cups of the water. Allow it to soak for 10 to 30 minutes.
• Once this time has passed, add the remaining 1 1/2 cups of water and the salt. Stir well.
• Place the pot over high heat. As soon as the water comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover 3/4 of the pot so the lid is sitting askew, allowing some of the steam to escape.
• Boil the rice for 15 to 20 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed.
• Turn off the heat, but keep the pot on the burner. Place the lid on tight and allow the rice to "steam" for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the lid and add the coconut milk, stirring until well mixed. You may have to break up the rice a little with a spoon or fork as the lower temperature allows the rice to stick together.
• Turn the heat back on low and, while gently simmering, add 3/4 cup to 1 cup sugar. Start with the lesser amount and taste, adding more if needed.
• Add the vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
• Taste the pudding for sweetness. Add more sugar to enhance the sweetness or more coconut milk if the pudding is too sweet. The rice will eventually absorb most of the coconut milk, creating a very thick rice pudding.
• In the following step, you have two options: add coconut milk to the entire batch to make a thinner pudding that can be easily scooped into bowls, or serve the thick pudding in individual serving bowls and pour coconut milk , cream, or the milk of your choice around it.
• Garnish each serving by sprinkling extra cinnamon or nutmeg on top. Decorate it with cinnamon sticks, whole star anise, crushed peanuts, or toasted coconut if desired.
• Enjoy.

RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a heavy bottomed, 3 quart sauce pan, combine the milk, water, sugar, cinnamon stick and rice. Stir to combine.
• Bring to an intense simmer (just below boiling) over medium high heat, stirring often. Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and continue cooking, stirring often until the rice is tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Some liquid will remain. The mixture should have the consistency of a thin oatmeal but will continue to thicken as it cools.
• Remove from heat and remove the cinnamon stick. Stir in the vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract and raisins, if using.
• Spoon the rice pudding into individual ramekins or small containers OR transfer to a large serving dish. Let the pudding cool slightly before serving or let cool to room temperature, cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 1 day in advance.
• Just before serving, top with freshly grated cinnamon or ground cinnamon. Pudding can be enjoyed warm or cooled.

LOTUS, PURPLE SWEET POTATO, AND COCONUT RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Soak the glutinous rice: In a small bowl, add the glutinous rice and cover it with water by at least 2 inches. Allow the rice to soak for at least 30 minutes. Drain the rice well into a fine mesh sieve set over the sink.
• Make the rice pudding: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the drained rice, purple sweet potatoes, lotus root, 1 2/3 cups coconut water, and palm sugar. Use a wooden spoon to stir well and bring it to a boil. As soon as it comes up to a boil, put the lid on and reduce the heat to the lowest setting. Allow it to cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to make sure the bottom does not burn. The rice will be fluffy, sticky, and double in size. Add the remaining 1 1/3 cups coconut water, lotus seeds, and 1/3 cup coconut cream. Stir well, put the lid on, and cook for 5 minutes. Taste the rice. It should be soft.
• Serve: Serve the rice pudding warm in bowls with extra coconut cream drizzled over the top.
