Black Forest Rice Pudding Recipes

THAI BLACK STICKY RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Soak rice: Place both rices in a bowl and cover with water (5cm / 2" above). Soak for 4 hours (up to 12 hours).
• Strain the rice and add it to a small pot or large saucepan.
• Pandan leaves: Add the knotted pandan leaves.
• Simmer 30 minutes: Add 4 cups of cold water. Bring to boil. Turn stove down to low so it's simmering very gently (small, slow little bubbles). Simmer 30 minutes (no lid), stirring frequently for the last 15 minutes and almost constantly towards the end (so the base does not catch).
• Consistency: Rice should be soft / fully cooked through, water reduced, and sauce should be creamy not watery (starch from rice thickens water).
• Add sugar: Stir in sugar and salt until it dissolves (~20 seconds).
• Ladle into bowls - it should ooze slowly, not be runny nor so thick it stays in a mound, see video for consistency. (If it's too thick, add a touch of water and stir).
• Toppings: Mix coconut cream with salt. Drizzle onto rice pudding. Top with toasted coconut and mango if using. Serve immediately.

BLACK RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Bring rice, 3 cups water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered with a tight-fitting lid, 45 minutes (rice will be cooked but still wet). Stir in sugar, a scant 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 1/2 cups coconut milk and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick and rice is tender but still slightly chewy, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from heat and cool to warm or room temperature, stirring occasionally, at least 30 minutes. Just before serving, stir pudding and divide among 8 bowls. Stir remaining coconut milk and drizzle over pudding.

BLACK RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• If you don't have a pressure cooker, soak the rice for 24 hours before cooking.
• Heat the water and rice in a pot and as the water gets hot, add the sugar. Stir until dissolved.
• Break up the cinnamon, crush the cardamom and cloves with a mortar and pestle. Place the spices in a piece of gauze or muslin and form a bag by closing it with a piece of cotton.
• Pressure cooking method: Submerge the spice bag in the mixture and pressure cook for about 30 minutes.
• When the pressure has come down, open the pot and stir any sedimented rice into suspension and then allow to simmer for about 15 minutes without a lid and with regular stirring on a low flame. This will form a syrup.
• While simmeing occasionally press the spice bag against the pot wall so that more of the spice essence is released.
• Mix well and serve or use a measuring jug to transfer the rice to storage containers.
• Simmering method: Note the level of the water in the pot after you have dissolved the sugar and added the spice bag. You will probably need to simmer for at least 90 minutes so occasionally top up the water and stir well.
• Serve hot with a topping of coconut cream.

BLACK RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Place the milk and cream in a two-quart heavy saucepan with the lemon zest and cardamom seeds. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 1 hour, until reduced to about 4 cups. Strain the thick milk mixture, and discard solids and seasoning ingredients.
• Meanwhile, combine the rice and 2 cups of water with salt, if desired, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, about half an hour, or until all the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is very soft. If the liquid is used up before the rice is cooked, add more boiling water a little at a time. Combine the strained milk and the rice, and cook at a slow simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
• Put the rice flour and cornstarch in a small bowl, and slowly stir in a few tablespoons of the cooking liquid to make a very smooth paste. Stir the paste slowly into the simmering milk and rice, and cook 10 more minutes, stirring constantly. Add the vanilla and sugar, and continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the mixture is very thick but not solid.
• Serve warm or at room temperature (not chilled), garnishing with chopped pistachios if desired.

BLACK FOREST PUDDING

Steps:

• Brush a 1.5-litre pudding basin with oil - if you don't have a 1.5-litre pudding basin, use a smaller one and serve any fruit that won't fit on the side. Line the basin with a double layer of cling film, overhanging the basin at the top.
• Put the blackberries, cherries, grapes and sugar in a saucepan with 3 tbsp water. Cover and gently heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has melted and the fruit is syrupy. Add the currants and blueberries, cover and cook gently for 2 mins more until the fruit is just softened. Take off the heat and cool.
• Strain the fruit into a colander set over a bowl. Leave for 5 mins to drain well, then stir the cassis or Ribena into the captured juices. Trim the crusts from the bread slices and discard, losing as little bread as possible. Then use a pastry brush to spread a little of the berry juices over one side of each slice. Cut a circle from 1 slice (or 2 semi-circles from 2 slices) that will neatly cover the base of the basin, and push in - juice-side down.
• Reserve some bread so that you have enough to cover the top of the basin, then halve the remaining slices into fat fingers - trimming to the correct length to line the sides of the basin. Then, juice-side down, work round the basin, overlapping the edges of the bread slightly and pressing them to stay in place, until the basin is completely lined with bread. Patch any gaps with scraps.
• Reserve a couple of spoonfuls of fruit to serve, then spoon the remainder into the bread-lined basin, squishing the fruit down to level it. Reserve 150ml of the juices with the reserved berries, then pour the rest into the basin, concentrating on pouring it around the edges to soak into the bread. Jigsaw the reserved bread to neatly cover the top and seal in the fruit, this time placing it juice-side up. Loosely cover the top of the basin with cling film. Find a small plate that will fit snugly inside the basin so it is in contact with the pudding and add 4 x 400g cans to weigh it down. Chill overnight with the reserved juice and berries.
• To serve, unwrap and invert the basin onto a serving plate with a lip to hold any juices. Lift off the basin, holding the cling film down tightly as you pull to help you remove it. Peel off the cling film round the pudding. If you've any white bread patches visible, spoon over some juice to colour it. Spoon the rest of the berries and juice onto the top of the pud and serve with clotted or single cream, if you like.
