RECIPES WITH ARBORIO RICE RECIPES

Steps:

• Bring water, salt, and butter to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the rice, return to a boil, and then reduce the heat to the lowest setting. Shake the pan occasionally and cook until rice has absorbed the water but it still al dente, about 15 minutes.
• Bring milk, sugar, vanilla, and a few dashes of cinnamon to a simmer in a separate saucepan. Add the cooked rice and cook at a simmer over medium-low heat until rice absorbs most of the milk and mixture starts to get thick and silky, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Transfer pudding to a large bowl and cool to room temperature. Place in refrigerator until cool and set. Serve with whipped cream and a dash more cinnamon.

Steps:

• In the Instant Pot, combine rice, sugar, salt, and milk.
• Select Sauté function and bring contents to a boil, stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, cover and lock lid in place.
• Select Manual or Pressure Cook function on the Instant Pot and adjust to low pressure. Set cooking time for 16 minutes.
• While rice is cooking, whisk eggs with half and half and vanilla. When beeps sound, turn off pressure cooker, wait 10 minutes and then use a quick pressure release. Carefully remove the lid. Stir the rice in pot.
• Stir the egg mixture in to the pot. Select Saute and cook uncovered until mixture just starts to boil.
• Turn off pressure cooker. Stir in raisins.
• Serve immediately, or pour into servings dishes cool then chill. (Pudding will thicken as it cools, so you may want to add a little extra half and half if you’re serving it cold.) Enjoy!
