Rice pudding with golden raisins and pistachios
Rice pudding is one of those comfort foods when made perfectly. It is easy, quick and this recipe does not require eggs or an oven. The secret is using the right rice. I have tried this recipe with basmati, glutinous, long grain but the perfect rice that seems to have the perfect starch consistency is a good medium grain short grain white rice. Made with creamy hemp milk (you can use rice milk) and agave. The sweetness of the raisins with the saltiness of the pistachios gives it a nice balance of salty sweet.
Start by boiling 1 cup water. (The normal proportions would be 2 water to 1 rice.). Add in
1/2 cup medium short grain white rice and a pinch of salt. Simmer on low for 15-20 minutes as you would when making regular rice.
Add 2 1/2 cups hemp or rice milk, 1/3 cup agave and cook on low for another 30 minutes. Pudding will be cooked when spoon stands up straight in the mix.
Add 1 tsp vanilla, 1//2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 cup golden raisins and 1/2 tsp pistachio nuts.
YUMMY! How easy is that!
