Title: Basic rice pudding
 Categories: Desserts
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
    1/3 c  Rice
      2 tb Butter
      4 c  Milk
      3 tb Sugar
    1/8 ts Salt
           Nutmeg
 
  Wash the rice in several changes of cold water. Drain the grains &
  dry them between sheets of paper toweling. In a heavy 1-1/2-quart
  casserole melt the butter over low heat. Add the rice & heat it,
  stirring constantly until the grains whiten. Do not let them brown.
  In a saucepan combine the milk with the sugar & salt, & scald it. Add
  it to the rice, stirring just long enough to blend. Let the milk
  bubble for a few seconds. Remove the casserole from the heat &
  sprinkle the top of the rice & milk with nutmeg. Cover the container
  securely & set it in an oven preheated to 250 degrees. Bake the
  pudding for 1-1/2 hours, or until it is firm & the grains of rice are
  very soft. Serve warm or cold.
