RICE PUDDING WITH INSTANT RICE RECIPES

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!

Steps:

• In the pressure cooker pot, stir together the rice, milk, sugar, cinnamon stick, orange zest (if using), vanilla bean and seeds, and salt.
• Lock the lid into place and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then manually release the remaining pressure.
• Open the lid and discard the cinnamon stick, orange zest and vanilla bean.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the cream and yolks. Whisk into the rice and continue to stir until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. (It will still look soupy at this point.) The residual heat of the rice will cook the yolks, and chilling will thicken the pudding. Stir in the raisins, if using.
• Spoon the pudding into serving bowls, then cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours. Serve with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or cardamom and whipped cream, if you’d like.
