Recipe Review

edited to raise to a "5" -- this pudding is even better cold - excellent texture and flavor.

This creamy rice pudding is relatively quick to put together, and it is delicious. I used the full amount of milk called for (6C for 3/4C rice), and am pleased by the lovely custard that resulted. You cook the rice, milk, sugar, and flavorings (I used nutmeg, mastic, and yellow raisins). After the rice is cooked, you mix in egg yolks (3), and whisk it over heat until its cooked. It took more like 5 minutes to thicken to my taste, but it came out with the perfect creamy texture.

I was a bit heavy-handed with the mastic, and there is a definite resin-like flavor. But it goes well with the rest of the ingredients. In fact, my 17-yr old son who typically does not care for rice pudding is actually enthusiastic about this one.
