DANISH CHRISTMAS RICE PUDDING WITH ALMONDS AND WARM CHERRY SAUCE



Danish Christmas Rice Pudding With Almonds and Warm Cherry Sauce image

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.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups full-fat milk
1/3 cup short-grained white rice (65 g)
1/2 vanilla pod (reserve the other half for the sauce)
1 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup almond paste (or use almond flakes or finely chopped almonds)
1 whole almond (more if you have several children present)
1 1/2 cups frozen pitted cherries (about 185 g)
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 vanilla pod
1 1/2 cups water
2 tablespoons cold water
1 tablespoon potato starch (corn starch can be substituted)
fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)

Steps:

  • Split half of the vanilla pod length ways, scrape out the seeds.
  • Place the milk and vanilla in a heavy-bottomed pan. Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat. Add the rice gradually, stirring constantly.
  • Increase the heat and bring to a boil again.
  • When the milk boils, reduce the heat, cover and simmer on a very low heat for about 1 hour or until the rice is cooked. Stir from time to time, making sure that the rice doesn't stick too much to the bottom.
  • Leave to cool completely.
  • Whip the cream together with sugar. Fold the whipped cream and almonds into the rice. You can add more sugar or more almonds if you wish. Serve with warm cherry sauce.
  • Now make the cherry sauce. Place the cherries in a medium saucepan. Add sugar and 1 1/2 cups water. Add the vanilla pod. Simmer until the cherries are tender.
  • Combine the potato starch with 2 tablespoons cold water.
  • Bring the cherries to a boil. Remove the vanilla pod from the pot. Reduce the heat, and , stirring constantly, slowly pour the water with the starch. Simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and serve warm over the rice pudding. Garnish with a fresh mint leaf, if desired.
  • * I used frozen sour cherries in this recipe, but regular sweet cherries should work as well.

RICE PUDDING WITH DRIED CHERRIES AND VANILLA



Rice Pudding with Dried Cherries and Vanilla image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Fruit     Rice     Dessert     Low Fat     Vegetarian     Kid-Friendly     Orange     Cherry     Vanilla     Chill     Healthy     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup dried tart cherries
4 1/2 cups low-fat (1%) milk
2/3 cup long-grain white rice
1/3 cup sugar
1 3 x1-inch orange peel strip (orange part only)
Generous pinch of salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Additional low-fat (1%) milk (optional)

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. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer gently uncovered until rice is very tender and pudding is creamy, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Mix in cherries and vanilla. Divide among 6 custard cups. Cool. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover; chill.) Serve chilled or at room temperature, passing additional milk to stir into pudding, if desired.

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.

Conclusion:

Rice pudding is a classic dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a simple and easy dish to make, and it is also very versatile. You can customize it to your own taste by adding different flavors and toppings. Whether you like it plain or fancy, rice pudding is a delicious and satisfying treat.
