| 3329.1 | Cream of Rice? | RANGER::PESENTI | Only messages can be dragged | Tue Nov 19 1991 09:50 | 2 |
| Could it be cream of rice? I've seen it along with the usual cream of wheat in
the breakfast area. If not there, try the baby foods aisle.

| 3329.2 | Cream of rice ia great | MR4DEC::MAHONEY | | Tue Nov 19 1991 11:26 | 8 |
| I always used cream of rice for the kids when they were little... it is
widely accessible anywhere in Europe, in fact, cream of rice was just
about the first cereal they had. (I used lemon peel and a bit of
cinnamon to flavor it and, oh boy, was it good! Then, when they became
used to it I introduced them to cream of wheat, and so on...

| Cream of Rice in the store? Never seen it. I'll have to look. Thanks
for the pointers.
Anyway, this morning I was having a craving for this mythical substance
I had never had so I made some...
I took half a cup of cooked rice (last night's leftovers), added a half
cup of milk, some banana to sweeten it (I don't use sugar) and some
raisins, a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon, the microwaved the whole thing
on low for about 5 minuts. I guess I ended up with something more like
rice pudding than porridge but it was good!

| 3329.4 | Rice cereal, etc. | PINION::MCCONNELL | | Tue Nov 19 1991 12:42 | 13 |
| I like cream of rice cereal & cream of wheat. Cream of Rice is put out
by the same company as cream of wheat (Quaker?) and here in central MA,
it can be found in the cereal aisle.
But...I like the way you improvised and think I will try adding some
interest to leftover rice for a breakfast.
I usually make extra rice, using it for a second meal later in the week
by using it as is, adding wine, adding veggies, or herbs, or all of the
previous.
Good luck finding the cereal.

| 3329.5 | Rice pudding?
| KERNEL::SIMA | Alison Sim | Tue Nov 19 1991 13:42 | 9 |
| Wouldn't rice boiled in milk be good old-fashioned rice pudding? (after all porridge is
basically oats cooked in milk)
Don't you just buy it in cans, or make it yourself? (ever so easy)
Perhaps I'm missing a point here.....

| 3329.6 | pudding in cans??? | TLE::TLE::D_CARROLL | I know a good thing when I am one | Tue Nov 19 1991 14:44 | 8 |
| Well I've never seen rice pudding in cans. Also, as I mentioned, I
don't use sugar, and I would imagine that any canned rice puddings
would be sweetened with sugar. Also, I didn't have something so sweet
in mind - like, I sweeten oatmeal with fruit or a little Nutrasweet,
but I still wouldn't call it a sweet dish - not is this rice stuff I
had in mind.

| 3329.7 | Chinese style rice porridge | TARKIN::TING | Albert Ting | Tue Nov 19 1991 18:24 | 17 |
| The rice porridge you normally see in chinese restaurants is not quite what
you're looking for. It's a soup that some restaurants call "Zok" or
"SeeFan". It's often served in restuarants that makes various kinds of
wonton soups. I use a crockpot since it requires a long time to cook. You
bascially do this:
- Before going to work, add a 10:1 ratio of water to rice in a crockpot.
I add 10 cups water with 1 cup of rice.
- Put some old chicken bones or boullion cubes to make the soup stock.
Set a low heat.
- After work, mix up the soup. Add salt/pepper to taste. Then add some
meat (pork, crab, fish) along with some scallions. After half hour,
it's done.
