Anonymous asked: Any ideas for a dessert for a Greek dinner? I've joined an international grub club here and have been assigned the dessert. No baklava please. -Kerry
Creamy Rice Pudding Servings: 8
4 C Classic Creme Anglaise (stove top custard, thickened with egg yolk)
3 C cooked good quality long grain white rice ( my version: Jasmine, Basmati)
3 T rose water or orange blossom water
Roasted Pistachios
Prepare rice (1-1/2 C rice + 2 -1/4 C water + 1 t. sea salt) by following basic stove top or rice cooker directions. Prepare Creme Anglaise, using a classic
recipe. Strain custard into rice. Stir in rose water or orange blossom water. Adjust taste. Chill. Garnish individual servings with Roasted Pistachios.
