DANISH CHRISTMAS RICE PUDDING WITH ALMONDS AND WARM CHERRY SAUCE
Danish Christmas rice pudding with warm cherry sauce or Risalamande is traditionally served on Christmas Eve. Whoever finds the hidden almond receives a small gift. I like this recipe because it is cooked entirely on the stove top and cooks in one hour, rather than in the oven for two hours or more. Can be made in advance and refrigerated until serving time. The Danes often buy a store bought cherry sauce, but I've included a recipe for home-made. :) Adapted from an online source.

Steps:
- Place cherries in small bowl. Cover with hot water. Let stand 15 minutes. Drain.
- Combine milk, rice, sugar, orange peel and salt in heavy medium saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring often.

Tips:
- To make the perfect rice pudding, use high-quality short-grain rice. It will absorb the milk and sugar better, resulting in a creamy and flavorful pudding.
- Use whole milk or heavy cream for a richer flavor. You can also use a combination of milk and cream.
- Add sugar to taste. You can also add other sweeteners, such as honey or maple syrup.
- Flavor the pudding with vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, or other spices. You can also add fresh or dried fruit, nuts, or chocolate chips.
- Cook the pudding over low heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened and reached the desired consistency. Do not boil the pudding, or it will curdle.
- Serve the pudding warm or cold. You can also refrigerate it for later.
