Ingredients

• 1 cup White rice
• 2 cups Water
• 2 cups Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Egg
• 0.75 cup Sun-Maid raisins

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the pudding from becoming overly sticky.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the rinsed rice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until most of the water is absorbed.

Step 3

Stir in the whole milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, until the mixture thickens, about 20 minutes.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Slowly add a few spoonfuls of the hot rice mixture to the egg, stirring constantly to temper the egg and prevent it from curdling.

Step 5

Return the tempered egg mixture to the saucepan and stir well. Add the ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, mixing thoroughly.

Step 6

Stir in the Sun-Maid raisins and cook for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring the pudding is thick and creamy.

Step 7

Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving. The pudding will thicken further as it cools.

Step 8

Serve warm or chilled, garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream if desired. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
