Rice Pudding With Vanilla Bean Orange And Rum Recipes

RICE PUDDING WITH GOLDEN RAISINS

Steps:

• In a medium heavy-bottom pot, combine milk, cream, sugar, rice and salt. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean and drop them in along with the pod. Stir in cinnamon and orange peel. Bring mixture to a simmer; cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until rice is tender and mixture is slightly thickened, 30 to 40 minutes. Do not let mixture come to a boil and don't let it get too thick, because it will thicken as it cools. Stir in raisins and let pudding rest for 5 minutes to soften them.
• Serve pudding warm, room temperature or chilled, with dollops of crème fraîche, if desired.

RICE PUDDING WITH VANILLA, ORANGE, AND RUM

Steps:

• In a heavy, medium saucepan, combine the milk and rice. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla bean and add the bean. Bring the milk to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in the sugar, rum, and orange zest. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes longer. Discard the vanilla bean and spoon the rice pudding into bowls. Cover and refrigerate until the pudding is cold, about 5 hours and up to 1 day ahead. Serve with orange segments.

ORANGE COCONUT RICE PUDDING WITH HOMEMADE VANILLA SUGAR

Steps:

• Add the rice, salt, 1 can of coconut milk and 1 1/2 cups water to a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and cook until almost all of the liquid is absorbed, about 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the Vanilla Sugar, orange zest and remaining can of coconut milk to a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring regularly, until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Once the mixture is at a simmer, turn off the heat.
• After the rice has cooked for 18 minutes, add the coconut milk-orange zest mixture to the rice and continue to cook over low until the rice is very tender and creamy, an additional 15 minutes.
• Add the sugar to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Slice open the vanilla bean pods and use the back of a knife to scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds to the food processor with the sugar and blend for about a minute, until the vanilla beans are evenly distributed. Pour the vanilla sugar into an airtight container and add 1 of the scraped vanilla bean pods.

VANILLA BEAN RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Bring 1 1/2 cups water, rice, and salt to simmer in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover. Simmer until water is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Add milk, cream, and sugar. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add bean. Increase heat to medium; cook uncovered until rice is tender and mixture thickens slightly to a soft, creamy texture, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes.
• Remove pudding from heat and discard vanilla bean. Divide pudding evenly among small bowls. Serve warm or press plastic wrap directly onto surface of each pudding and chill thoroughly. DO AHEAD: Pudding can be made 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.

CREAMY ORANGE RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Remove zest from orange using the smallest holes on a box grater, and set aside. Cut ends off orange, and remove peel, pith, and outer membranes, following the curve of the fruit with a paring knife. Lift sections away from membranes, and set aside. Squeeze juice from membranes over sections before discarding.
• Place the Arborio rice, milk, reserved orange zest, lemon zest, vanilla bean and seeds, salt, and sugar in a medium saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and most but not all of the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream. Remove the vanilla bean, and serve the pudding in small bowls garnished with orange sections.

VANILLA RICE PUDDINGS WITH GLAZED ORANGES

Steps:

• Make the glazed oranges: Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil. Add oranges, and cook until almost translucent, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer to a baking sheet.
• Cut a parchment circle to fit a large, shallow saucepan. Bring water, honey, and sugar to a boil in the pan, stirring to dissolve sugar and honey. Add oranges, and place parchment directly on surface. Reduce heat, and gently simmer until oranges are soft and liquid has reduced to a syrup, about 24 minutes. Let cool. (Oranges and syrup can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week.)
• Make the rice pudding: Put rice, water, milk, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat. Cover, and simmer until almost all of the liquid has been absorbed, 16 to 17 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; let cool. Discard vanilla bean.
• Beat cream until very soft peaks form. Fold into rice mixture. Divide pudding among serving dishes; top with orange slices, and drizzle with syrup.
