Substitute Brown Rice For White In Rice Pudding

Don't limit yourself to thinking rice pudding must be made with white rice.


Rice pudding is a sweet dish that is most often made with white rice. Rice pudding made with brown white substituted for the white will add extra nutrition and give the pudding a richer, nuttier taste. The remainder of the ingredients used in your favorite rice pudding recipe will remain the same. Add this to my Recipe Box.


Instructions


1. Measure the amount of brown rice equivalent to the amount of white rice called for in the recipe. For instance, if the recipe calls for 1 cup of white rice, measure 1 cup of brown rice.


2. Bring 3 to 3 1/2 cups of milk or half-and-half to a boil in a saucepan. Pour in the brown rice and stir. Place a lid on the saucepan.


3. Turn the heat under the saucepan down to low and let the rice cook for 1 hour.


4. Lift the lid and quickly stir in the remaining ingredients of the rice pudding recipe. Replace the lid.


5. Allow the rice pudding to continue to cook on low for another 1/2 to 1 hour without removing the lid. Stir and add additional milk to enhance the creaminess of the pudding, if desired. Serve at room temperature or cold.
