Norwegian Rice

Recipe #64308 | 45 min | 10 min prep | add private note

My dad always makes this for the Holidays and we all love it! I have never made it myself for fear of doing something wrong- it may take a few tries to get it perfect (I wonder how long it took my dad...) Use whole milk for this one- It makes the rice nice and thick! Mmmm...I can't wait until the Holidays are here again!

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 2 quarts whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked rice
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup cream (Half & Half)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat the milk to boiling point.
  2. 2
    Cook the rice in boiling water until almost done, then drain it.
  3. 3
    Add the rice to the hot milk- bring the milk to almost a boil. When the rice is fully cooked, add step #4.
  4. 4
    Beat 1 egg and 3/4 cup sugar, 1 tsp salt, 3 tbsp flour, and 1/2 cup Half and Half cream- mix well.
  5. 5
    Cook at a slow boil until the rice is well suspended, and stays at the surface when the milk is boiling.
  6. 6
    Cool, and serve. I like it best when refrigerated, but some like it warm. Sprinkling cinnamon on top is always good.
  7. 7
    Enjoy!

    Our family is 100% Norwegian & my grandma used to make this whenever we would come over. We called it rice mush. Brings back sooooo many memories. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    This was FABULOUS! It came out perfectly the first time I tried it and is now my new favorite comfort food. All the joy of ice cream, but you can eat it warm too!

    A lob of butter in the middle and cinnamon and suggar sprinkled over is the usual way to eat it hot. The leftovers are used to make rice cream - just mix the leftovers with whipped cream and serve with a cold berry sauce - eg. strawberry or raspberry or a mix with blueberries. Sauce is made by taking the juice of the berries (clear/strained) and adding sugar and boiling until it thickens.
