So here is part 2 of Volume 2. The best part of our Thai dinner, and it wasn't even Thai. I made Norwegian Riskrim (rice pudding). My parents had made it for dessert at Christmas, so I snagged the recipe. It's a bit time consuming to make, but the end result is fantastic. So, the phrase "good things come to those who wait", is definitely true for this recipe.
Norwegian Riskrim
3/4 cup rice
1 tsp. salt
4 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1/2 pint whipping cream, whipped and sweetened with 2 Tbsp. icing sugar
1/2 cup chopped almonds
Raspberries, strawberries or lingonberries with liquid, for serving (optional)
Cook rice and salt in milk over double boiler, over low to medium heat (usually a 3-4), until rice is soft and mixture is thick. This usually takes 1 1/2 hours. Stir about every 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat, and add sugar and extract. Chill completely. Add the chopped almonds. Stir in whipped cream. Serve with fruit, if desired. Makes 4 generous servings...
