The ingredients needed to make Perfectly Creamy Speedy Rice Pudding:

  2. Get 2 cup Half & Half (divided)
  3. Take 1/3 cup Granulated sugar

  9. Make ready 1/8 tsp Ground ginger
  10. Get 1 tbsp Unsalted butter

Steps to make Perfectly Creamy Speedy Rice Pudding:
  1. *** A bag of "minute" rice is 1 cup uncooked or 2 cups cooked. You can use any rice you like or have on hand. A medium or short grained rice works best for pudding but you can also use brown rice, orzo pasta or even quinoa. The point is that you need to end up with 2 cups of cooked grain. :-)
  2. In a small bowl cover raisins with about 1/4 cup of boiling water. Let the raisins soak while the rice is cooking.. This is just a little extra step I like to do to plump up the raisins a bit but its totally optional.
  3. In a medium saucepan place the bag of minute rice and cover with cold water. Over high heat, bring to a boil and cook uncovered for 8 - 10 minutes (or per package directions). Once done, remove bag from water and drain thoroughly.
  4. In another medium saucepan put 1 1/2 cups half & half, sugar, salt and cooked rice. Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce to medium-low and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until mixture has thickened. Make sure to watch closely so the liquid doesn't boil over or scorch.
  5. Drain any remaining liquid from the plumped raisins and set aside. In a small bowl beat the egg and mix in the 1/2 cup of reserved half & half. Temper the egg/half & half by taking approximately 1/2 cup of the hot liquid and quickly mixing it in then pouring that into the simmering pudding stirring constantly. Add the raisins, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg and continue to stir over medium-low for another 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the vanilla and butter, stirring until the butter is melted.
  6. You can serve this right away or put it in the fridge to chill. Either way is yummy. Also, remember to be gentle when stirring your rice. You don't want to break up the grains too much or you'll end up with a very starchy mushy pudding.
