Sharon, I never did see our requests. This is the first one I've seen. Let
me dig out my actual recipe and I will post it for you. The one I make is
really quite good.

Sorry for the delay, but we gone most of the day...

"The Best Rice Pudding"

1 cup water
1/2 cup short-grain white rice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup golden raisins (optional)
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons Splenda® (or to taste)
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg or cinnamon
Optional: additional heavy cream

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish.

Bring the water to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan. Add the rice and salt.
Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Add the milk and the raisins,
cover, and cook over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the rice
is tender.

In a small bowl, blend the cream, vanilla, sugar, and eggs. Add to the
rice. Pour into the baking dish, and sprinkle with the nutmeg or cinnamon.
Place in a slightly larger ovenproof dish. Add 1 inch of boiling water to
the larger dish and place in the oven. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until
set. Serve warm or at room temperature with heavy cream if desired.

Note: Short grain rice is starchier than long-grain rice, and it makes a
creamier pudding. I have never tried using "sticky rice" with this recipe,
but it's worth a try.

I also mix the spice into the pudding mixture, and then sprinkle a tiny
amount on top.

Enjoy!

Of course, some might steer you toward a rice-like pudding made
with (IIRC) cottage cheese.

That's not what I'm looking for Jean...I had rice pudding in our local
coffee shop the other day and it wasn't overly sweet. The owner told me she
made it with rice labeled "sticky rice" in our local store. I got some
today and would like to duplicate it. I didn't have the nerve to ask her
for the recipe since we eat there almost every week.....lol...
thanks....Sharon

I'm sure it isn't what you were looking for, but diabetic rice
pudding doesn't compute for me.

I didn't think I would tolerate it either, but was tempted when it was
served to my table mates last week. The owner said she didn't put much
sugar in it and told me about the sticky rice. The serving was small, not
too sweet and I tolerated it well. I had a cheese omelet and one piece of
whole wheat toast previously, so that may be why. It was delicious and I
know what's for lunch next week..lol....Thanks for the imput Jean.....Sharon

Each diabetic prcesses rice differently and some tolerate it reasonably
well in limited quantities. I also substitute Spenda for the sugar in the
pudding I make. I posted that recipe for Sharon.

Traditionally I have always used short-grain white rice for rice pudding as
it makes it much creamier, but I may have to try the sticky rice to see how
that turns out.

Thanks Wayne...the sticky rice is a medium grain....ingredients
(INGREDIENTS!!??) say rice and corn syrup....?? What's with that? I
didn't look closely at the pkg when I bought it...same length as arborio,
but not as fat. ...........Sharon

Wayn, for we non-(yet!)-diabetics, was that a 1-for-1 substitution?

My wife loves a creamy rice pudding, but hasn't been able to get the
formula right to her taste. I'll try this, with short-grain...

The rice used can make a big difference. "Sticky rice" is probably a
short grain, and targeted for risotto or sushi rice.

Hey, all the more justification to ask, IMO!
