Hi Judy. Hate to be a pain but could I have the recipe too. Pretty please with cherries on top.

It's been raining here in Adelaide all day today so I fancied a nice hot rice pudding tonight. Thought I had better try this one after having sent it to so many.  Waiting for the 15 minutes rest time, put some in a bowl and did the taste test. Yuk! So salty. I couldn't work out why as I distinctly remember only putting a pinch of salt in.  I was really puzzled so retraced the steps in my mind and yes, I had picked up the brown pottery salt pot to spoon in the 50g 'sugar'.  That has to be my worst senior moment so far - DH laughed but I didn't think it was funny because I didn't have enough short-grain rice to make another batch.  Must say it looked really nice though

LOL!  Poor JD - if I lived closer I would pop round with some more rice for you to make another batch    It really is warm pudding weather here in Adelaide today isnt it - hard to believe it is mid-summer 

[judydawn]

Thanks KJH, a lovely thought.  I'm just loving this weather.

lol. That is funny. Hope you didnt try a big mouth full before you realized. Everytime I make rice pudding I will now remember that and double check.

Easily done Judy and the sort of thing I would do My worst senior moment, putting toilet rolls in the freezer, now that is funny.

LOL    Now that is the kind of thing I did when I was pregnant, CC

[judydawn]

  I made DH a coffee yesterday and carried the carton of milk into him instead of the mug of coffee but that is nothing compared to what you did CC.

Judy, how annoying for you. I can imagine that you were looking forward to the rice pudding too.
As for seniors moments, I feel better reading that others do silly things like I do.

I haven't tried making one yet, but am addicted to chocolate Le Rice... do you think either of the recipes could be adapted to make a chocolate one? And would someone mind PMing me the MWOC one - pretty please?

Made my replacement batch this afternoon - much better without all that salt.  It does set rather hard though so you need to add more milk when you either reheat it or serve it cold. Dyljon, tomorrow I will add some grated chocolate to a bowl of rice pudding before I reheat it and let you know how it turns out.

Thanks Judy!

I made it and had a brainstorm.

I added a cup of mixed orange Jello.  I had made a salad recipe that did not require all the Jello and it was still warm and liquid.

I used the Splenda/sugar baking mix instead of straight sugar and I used 1/3 less.
