Arroz con Leche*<\/strong><\/p>\n

Arroz con Leche was one of my favorite dishes in Spain. \u00a0The family I stayed with added grated orange peel, which I highly recommend. \u00a0I’ve tried it without, and it’s just not the same!<\/em><\/p>\n

3 cups milk<\/p>\n

1 1\/4 cups water<\/p>\n

1 cup rice, short or medium grain<\/p>\n

2 cinnamon sticks<\/p>\n

1\/4 tsp. salt<\/p>\n

1\/4 to 1\/3 of a 14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk** (from the health food store so it doesn’t contain high fructose corn syrup)<\/p>\n

2 tsp. vanilla<\/p>\n

grated orange peel (I used the zest of one mandarin orange. \u00a0Adjust to taste.)<\/p>\n

Bring milk and water to a slow simmer in a large pot over medium-low heat. \u00a0(This takes a while.) \u00a0Stir in rice and cinnamon sticks. \u00a0Barely simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. \u00a0When rice is soft, remove cinnamon sticks and stir in sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, salt and orange peel. \u00a0If necessary, return to a low simmer for 10 – 15 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice has a pudding-like consistency. \u00a0Serve hot with a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.<\/p>\n

*Adapted from this recipe: \u00a0http:\/\/mexicanfood.about.com\/od\/sweetsanddesserts\/r\/arrozconleche.htm<\/p>\n

**The recipe I originally used called for a whole can of sweetened condensed milk. \u00a0I definitely recommend cutting it back to more like 1\/3 of the can. \u00a0It would be way to sweet with a whole can. \u00a0The remaining condensed milk can be refrigerated for up to two weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
