RIce Pudding

Rice Pudding

Vegan OR Vegetarian OR Non-V_

Ingredients:

• 2 c. cooked rice (my fav: 1:1 forbidden:white)
• 3 c. milk (any kind, soy, hemp, cow's whatever)
• 0.5 c sugar
• pinch NaCl
• 0.5 c raisins (optional, helps gelatinize product)
• 1 tsp. vanilla or almond extract
• 0.5 tsp. cinnamon
• pinch nutmeg

Procedure:

1. Combine rice, milk, sugar, salt in medium saucepan
2. Boil, then reduce heat to simmer
3. Stir in vanilla extract, raisins
4. Cook 30-45 minutes, until milk is absorbed
5. Remove from heat, stir in cinnamon and nutmeg

Notes:

• Can add 1/2 c, of milk as needed
• If starting from dry rice: at 5280ft, 1.5 c dry rice cooks to 5.33 c. So use ~9/16c dry if you do not want leftovers. Cooked volume is more important than dry volume.
