Rice Pudding With Vanilla Bean Orange And Rum Recipes

Steps:

• Add the rice, salt, 1 can of coconut milk and 1 1/2 cups water to a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and cook until almost all of the liquid is absorbed, about 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the Vanilla Sugar, orange zest and remaining can of coconut milk to a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring regularly, until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Once the mixture is at a simmer, turn off the heat.
• After the rice has cooked for 18 minutes, add the coconut milk-orange zest mixture to the rice and continue to cook over low until the rice is very tender and creamy, an additional 15 minutes.
• Add the sugar to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Slice open the vanilla bean pods and use the back of a knife to scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds to the food processor with the sugar and blend for about a minute, until the vanilla beans are evenly distributed. Pour the vanilla sugar into an airtight container and add 1 of the scraped vanilla bean pods.

Steps:

• Combine the milk and rice in a heavy medium saucepan. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla bean; add the bean.
• Bring the milk to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the rice is tender, stirring frequently, about 25 minutes.
• Mix in the sugar, rum, and orange peel. Discard the vanilla bean.
• Cook until the mixture thickens, 5 to 10 minutes longer.
• Spoon the rice pudding into bowls.
• Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 5 hours.
• Serve with orange segments if desired.
