Philadelphia Rice Pudding

Submitted by Gillian Spence

"From Jeff Smith's "The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American" this recipe most closely resembles the English rice pudding I grew up with. PS: You're meant to eat it warm you silly bunch of yanks! ;)"

 

• Ready In: 2hrs 55mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 5

ingredients

• 1 cup long-grain rice, rinsed and drained well
• 6 cups milk
• 1⁄2 cup sugar, plus
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
2. Mix all of the ingredients together and place in a 3-quart covered saucepan. Bring to a simmer on the top of the stove and then place, covered, in the preheated oven.

Great tasting rice pudding, & what the heck ~ It's as satisfying cold as it is warm! Easy to put together, & just wait for it to cook ~ Nothing could be more simple! Thanks for sharing your nice English recipe with us yanks (& this laid back West Coast one, at that)! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]
