Best 3 Best Ever Rice Pudding Recipes

BEST EVER RICE CUSTARD PUDDING

Steps:

• Beat eggs and salt a little, add sugar then milk with splash of vanilla essence (optional). Put rice or sago in a buttered dish, pour over the egg mixture and sprinkle with a pinch of nutmeg (optional). Set in a dish of water and bake slowly in the oven at 160 c (325F) until custard sets.
• Extra Info: The milk in New Zealand is not watered down, still has cream in it, making it a creamy rice pudding. If not in NZ or Australia, then you can use Half and Half. I also add sultanas (raisins) to this recipe on occasion, which I cook to plump, with the rice beforehand. Sometimes I dot the top of the rice pudding with knobs of butter in order to get a brown skin.

THE BEST RICE PUDDING EVER!

Steps:

• 1. Place 2 3/4 quart of the milk and the heavy cream in a large pot and bring to a slow boil, stir constantly.
• 2. When you see small bubbles add the rice, butter, sugar and raisins. Simmer, stirring the mixture often for 1 hour until the rice is tender and puffed.
• 3. In a blender(or by hand) beat the eggs and add remaining 1/4 quart milk to eggs. Gradually add this mixture to the cooked rice and stir constantly over low heat until thick.
• 4. Add cinnamon to taste.

BEST-EVER RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a 4-quart saucepan, combine 4 cups of the milk with the rice and sugar. With a pairing knife, split the vanilla bean lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, and add them to the pan. Add the scraped vanilla bean and the cinnamon stick and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat as necessary to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring frequently but gently, until the rice is completely tender, about 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth. Whisk in about 1 cup of the hot rice mixture. Pour the egg mixture back into the pan, add the remaining 2/3 cup milk, and stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly blended. Put the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, just until the mixture begins to boil, about 2 minutes. Transfer the rice pudding to a bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on its surface. Set the bowl in an ice bath to cool the pudding quickly. When cool, discard the cinnamon stick and the vanilla bean. Divide the pudding among 6 small bowls or ramekins, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
