Norwegian Rice Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Boil water and add rice, cover and lower heat to simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add milk and, if using them, the raisins or currants and vanilla and bring back to a boil.
• Cover, lower heat and simmer until the rice is tender, about 20-30 minutes.
• Season with salt.
• Serve with butter, milk, sugar and cinnamon.
• For a sweeter rice try adding 1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar with the milk.

Steps:

• Boil noodles in salted water until just barely tender. Strain the noodles and rinse with cold water; place in bowl.
• Melt the butter and put half in a large casserole or baking dish, coating the sides and bottom.
• Preheat oven to 350° and place the empty dish in the oven.
• Add cinnamon, raisins, sugar, salt and almond extract to the noodles.
• In a separate bowl, beat eggs; add milk and beat again until well blended.
• Add to the noodles with the remainder of the melted butter. Stir well.
• Pour into the heated casserole dish and bake until the top is golden brown, 1 hour or longer.

Steps:

• Place the rice in a strainer and pour the boiling water over the rice. Drain well.
• Place the rice, milk and salt in a double boiler and cook, covered, for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until all is thick and creamy.
• Stir in the butter, sugar, almond extract, nutmeg and almonds.
• Serve warm or chilled, with whipped cream.
