I thought this recipe turned out great. After adding the milk, sugar, zest and cinnamon stick, I let it simmer for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. It was still soupy looking, but I poured it into a ceramic pie pan, covered it with the buttered wax paper and let it cool off. When I tried some for dessert tonight, it was the pefect consistency and tasted great. I loved the hint of lemon in this pudding. Made for ZWT5.

This dish was ok, I might make it again but will definitely add some different spices to it or something, not sure what. After reading the other reviews I made some changes that I think helped. I didn't use any water, and only used half the milk, I also used a full teaspoon of vanilla. Made for ZWT 5 - Jammin Java Jivers.

This version of rice pudding is pretty good. I also added 2 cloves and some cardamom. And I decided to add golden raisins to make it fruitier. I didn't pay attention to liquid amounts. I just kept adding milk until the rice was done. Tasted great warm and cold. I served it with some extra cinnamon on top and fresh fruit (mango,pineapple) on the side. Made for zwt5.

I get paid to read snail mail and email. It is an awesome free portal where you get paid for what you are already doing on the web.
I live in Utah with my husband and son. They are my taste testers and are very happy that I love to cook. During the summer we camp and cook via dutch oven. My falls and springs are filled with canning. When I am actually working I do medical coding from home so I can take care of my son.
One thing I appreciate about Zaar is it keeps me from saying.
