Rich, silky, creamy, rice pudding is comfort in a bowl. Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk |
1 cup heavy cream, divided |
1/4 cup sugar (or splenda) |
1/2 cup arborio rice |
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Place the milk, 3/4 cup cream, sugar, rice, and vanilla extract in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
2. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for 30 to 40 minutes, until thickened. This is very similar to cooking risotto.
3. Test the rice to ensure it's done. You want a firm but tender bite, but no crunchy center to the rice.
4. Remove the pudding from the heat, and stir in the remaining 1/4 cup cream and the second vanilla extract, along with a pinch of sea salt.
5. Serve warm; or refrigerate, well covered, and serve chilled. Sprinkle with a touch of ground cinnamon, if desired.
