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.

STOVE-TOP RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan combine the milk, rice, and salt. Place saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to medium or medium-low and simmer until the rice is tender (about 25 minutes). To prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan, stir the mixture frequently with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
• When the rice is tender remove from heat and add the sugar and ground cinnamon. Return to heat and cook until the pudding thickens, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract. Spoon the pudding into your seeving bowls.
• If you like your pudding hot, eat it now.
• If you like your pudding cool, cover it with plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours. Remember that the longer you keep it in the fridge, the drier it will become.

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.

CREAMY RICE PUDDING RECIPE

Steps:

• Wash the rice in running water until the water is clear. Put it in a bowl with enough hot water to cover and leave it to soak for 15 minutes. Drain the rice and put in a heavy-bottomed pot with the water and salt.
• Cover the pot, bring the water to a boil and cook the rice on low heat until the water has been absorbed. Stir the sugar and half of the cinnamon into the cooked rice. Add the milk and mix well. Cook, uncovered, over a low heat until most of the milk has been absorbed. Stir the rice pudding occasionally.
• Lightly beat the eggs and very gradually mix them into the rice. Continue to cook the rice pudding for 5 more minutes. Stir in the raisins and turn the rice pudding into a serving dish.
• Sprinkle the extra cinnamon over the pudding.

CREAMY STOVETOP ARBORIO RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the milk, sugar, and vanilla to a boil. Add the rice. Stir, and boil for one minute.
• Reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook for 45 to 50 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and creamy.
• Pour the rice pudding into a bowl and stir until cooled to room temperature. PRO TIP: Speed the cooling process by putting the bowl over an ice bath. Even setting it over a bag of frozen vegetables will help speed things along.
• While the rice pudding is cooking, zest an orange, if desired, and set aside to garnish. Heat the raisins, Grand Marnier or juice, cinnamon, and enough water to cover the raisins in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat. Steep for about 15 minutes. Drain.
• Whip the crème fraîche or sour cream to fluffy, soft peaks. Gently fold into the rice pudding, along with 3/4 of the raisins. Chill until cool.
• Spoon the rice pudding into serving bowls. Top with a few more raisins and, if desired, a small sprinkle of cinnamon and some orange zest.This rice pudding will keep, refrigerated, for up to two days. Rice pudding tastes best very cool, but not cold.

CREAMY RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Add the rice and water to a pan and cook on a low to medium heat until all the water is absorbed.
• Gradually add the milk, one ladleful at a time, and stir continuously until all the milk is used up, and the rice is cooked through. Make sure there is still a bit of liquid left, see the 3rd photo in the collage.
• Add the sugar and vanilla extract, give it a good stir, then cover the pan with a lid and turn the heat off.
• Remove the lid after 5 minutes, give it another stir and enjoy!

STOVETOP RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place 1 1/2 cups of the milk in a medium (3-quart) saucepan over medium heat. Warm the milk until bubbles start to form around the edges, but don't let it boil.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the cooked rice and sugar. Let the mixture simmer, covered, for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in the remaining milk, egg, butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and raisins. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly until the rice pudding thickens.
• Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and serve immediately, or let cool and refrigerate until needed.

CREAMY STOVETOP RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• 1. Combine milk, rice, sugar, butter and salt in a 3 quart heavy saucepan.
• 2. Over MEDIUM heat, heat above mixture until tiny bubbles form around the edge, stirring frequently. This can take anywhere from 15 minutes to 1/2 hour, depending on your stove.
• 3. Reduce heat to LOW. Cover and simmer for about 1 hour or till rice is very tender, stirring occasionally.
• 4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. If desired, sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg before serving.
• 5. We like to eat it hot, but you can also serve it cold.

EXTRA CREAMY RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Rinse a large saucepan with cold water. Don't dry. Set on stove-top over medium heat. Add milk. Heat milk to boiling, over medium heat, stirring regularly. WATCH CLOSELY as it nears the boil! When milk hits the boil, it will boil up and possibly over. That's not a good thing.
• When milk boils, stir in rice and keep stirring until mixture returns to the boil. Reduce heat to a shade higher than low, or whatever level on your stove allows the mixture to gently simmer (bubble breaking the surface but not too vigorously). Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring down the mixture every 10 minutes (Important that you stir it down regularly and ensure that there is no rice sticking to the bottom of the pan. You will notice that the mixture has probably formed a skin on top. Don't remove it. Just stir it back in.)
• Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, use a fork to whisk together the cream, sugar, yolks, vanilla and salt. Set aside on counter while rice is cooking, leaving fork in bowl. Set out a ladle to use, as well. I like to do this after the rice starts cooking, so that the mixture comes to room temperature by the time it's needed.
• Once milk/rice has simmered for 30 minutes, continue simmering, but stir down every 5 minutes. With each stir, start testing the done-ness of the rice by tasting a piece. You want the rice to be tender (so no hard center). **Depending on the rice you used, your mixture may start to get thick-ish at this point, with little milky liquid left. If so, add more hot milk or water to the pot, just as much as needed to loosen the mixture up, with each stir. Watch closely and don't let the mixture get dry or it will scorch. Continue cooking, stirring down and adding additional milk, as needed until the rice is tender. Most rice is generally done at about 45-50 minutes of total simmering time. A lot will depend on how vigorously your mixture is boiling, so there is no hard and fast rule. Taste testing is the best indicator.
• Once the rice is cooked, slide the pot off the heat to avoid scorching. Re-whisk your egg mixture with your fork. Using the ladle, spoon out a ladle-full of hot rice/milk mixture, taking as much liquid as possible, but not to worry if you bring some of the rice with it. With the ladle in your left hand (assuming your right-handed, if not, reverse) and using your right hand to start whisking the egg mixture with the fork, start adding the hot mixture to the eggs A DROP AT A TIME, at first, while continuously whisking with the fork. Increase to a slow stream, while whisking continuously, until the entire ladle-full has been added. Get another ladle-full of hot liquid and slowly add it to the egg mixture as well, whisking continuously. Keep adding hot liquid until you've got at least 1 1/2 cups-1 3/4 cups of now warmed liquid in your bowl. Once you have reached that point, pour the warmed egg mixture into your cooking pot.
• Return the saucepan to heat, over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring almost continuously, just until a dime-sized bubble breaks the surface of the pudding. Pudding should be noticeably thickened and saucy, but still more sauce than rice (pudding will set more in the fridge as it cools). If liquid seems almost like milk consistency (rather than heavy cream consistency), it's too thin. Cook, stirring, a little longer. **Note though that you never want to allow the mixture to vigorously boil after the egg mixture has been added, as you may end up with scrambled eggs.
• If using raisins, add to the bottom of a medium-large bowl. When pudding is cooked, immediately pour hot mixture over raisins. Stir well to combine. Allow to stand on counter for about 5 minutes, to allow the steam to reduce, then cover bowl with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator. Allow to cool and set, at least 6 hours or preferably, over-night. Pudding will set as it cools. To serve, simply stir and spoon into bowls. Serve with a sprinkling of cinnamon, if desired. If pudding is or becomes too thick, simply add a tablespoon or so of heavy cream to mixture and stir in. If you enjoy your rice pudding warmed, you can warm slightly in the microwave or a small saucepan.
