Danish Rice Pudding
At 100°C, your rice pudding won’t stick to the bottom of the pot. It’s like putting the pudding in a haybox.
This makes it easy to let the rice pudding sit after the milk has been brought to a boil.
Ingredients
Danish Rice Pudding
130-200 gram Short grain white rice (1.3-2 dl)
1 l Whole milk
1 tsp. Salt
To serve
1 dl Sugar
1 tbsp. Cinnamon
Butter
Steps
Bring the pudding to a boil
Add pudding rice, milk, and salt to a pot.
Set the temperature to 115°C and bring the pudding to a boil while stirring constantly.
Cook the pudding
When the milk boils, lower the temperature to 100 °C. Let the porridge simmer for 2 hours. Stir about every ½ hour.Note: the more frequently you stir the pudding, the faster it cooks.The bottom of the pan is at 100 °C, but the pudding will be a few degrees lower and therefore won’t boil. This way the pudding cooks, but without the risk of it boiling over.
Cinnamon sugar
Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
To serve
Serve the pudding with cinnamon sugar and a knob of butter.
Notes
If you use 130 g of rice per liter of milk, the pudding will have a flatter consistency on the plate. This is ideal for rice pudding desserts like risalamande or rice fritters.
If you use 200 g of rice per liter of milk, the pudding will be thicker and can be shaped into a small mound on the plate. It will also cook faster.
