Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup long-grain white rice
3 cups 1% fat milk
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup dried tart cherries

Steps:

  • Bring water with salt to a boil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan and stir in rice. Cover pan and reduce heat to low, then cook until water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Stir in milk and sugar and cook over very low heat, covered, until mixture resembles a thick soup, 50 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Whisk together egg, egg whites, vanilla, cardamom, and a pinch of salt. Whisk about 1 cup hot rice mixture into egg mixture, then stir mixture into remaining rice. Cook over low heat (do not let boil), whisking constantly, until an instant-read thermometer registers 170°F, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in raisins and cherries.
  • Transfer pudding to a 2-quart dish or 6 (8-ounce) ramekins and chill, its surface covered with wax paper, until cool but not cold, 1 to 2 hours.

This rice pudding is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day. The flavors had really melded together and it was so creamy and delicious.

Not bad! I thought the rice pudding was a bit bland, but the dried cherries and raisins added some nice flavor. I would probably add some more sugar next time.
