A Nice Rice Pudding for Children

Ingredients

• 0.5 pound rice
• 1 quart fresh milk
• white sugar
• whole cinnamon
• lemon peel
• 1 bay leaf
• very little butter
• a little milk

Instructions

1. Pick over the rice well and boil it in one quart of fresh milk until tender. Sweeten with white sugar and flavour with whole cinnamon, lemon peel, and a bay leaf. When the rice is tender, transfer it to a deep dish. Warm a very little butter in a little milk and pour over the rice. Bake until brown in a slow oven. The author notes that a slow oven is requisite unless the rice is extremely soft before it is put in the oven.
