PALETAS DE ARROZ CON LECHE

Provided by Fany Gerson

Categories     Bean     Simmer

Yield makes 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup short- or medium-grain rice
3 cups whole milk
2/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup sugar
1 (3-inch) piece Mexican cinnamon, or 2 (1-inch) strips lime zest
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, or 3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the rice, milk, cream, half of the sugar, and the cinnamon in a large saucepan. If using the vanilla bean, scrape the seeds into the pot, then add the pod. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a simmer. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring often, for 45 minutes. Add the remaining sugar and continue to cook, stirring often so it doesn't stick to the bottom, until the rice is tender. If using vanilla extract, stir it in at this point.
  • Discard the vanilla bean pod and cinnamon or zest and let cool slightly. Transfer half of the mixture to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth (don't worry if some bits of rice remain). Pour the puree back into the mixture, stir thoroughly, and refrigerate until completely chilled.
  • If using conventional molds, divide the mixture among the molds, snap on the lid, and freeze until solid, about 5 hours. If using glasses or other unconventional molds, freeze until the pops are beginning to set (1 1/2 to 2 hours), then insert the sticks and freeze until solid, 4 to 5 hours. If using an instant ice pop maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right kind of rice. Arroz con leche is traditionally made with short-grain rice. Medium-grain rice can also be used, but it will result in a slightly softer texture.
  • Use whole milk or a combination of whole milk and coconut milk. This will give the popsicles a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Add some spices for extra flavor. Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all popular spices that can be used to flavor arroz con leche.
  • Don't overcook the rice. The rice should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it.
  • Chill the mixture thoroughly before freezing it. This will help the popsicles set up properly.
  • Use popsicle molds or paper cups to form the popsicles. If you're using paper cups, be sure to insert a popsicle stick into the center of each cup before freezing.
  • Freeze the popsicles for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

Conclusion:

Arroz con leche ice pops are a delicious and refreshing treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're perfect for a hot summer day or as a sweet snack. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own arroz con leche ice pops at home. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
