Answers:
BREAD PUDDING
1 cup bread
2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup sugar
grated lemon rind
lemon flavoring
Remove crusts from bread. Pour milk over soft bread. Allow to stand until soft, about 30 minutes.
Separate eggs.
Add egg yolks, slightly beaten, 2 Tablespoons sugar, and grated rind of 1 lemon.
Pour into buttered baking dish and set in pan of water to bake until it sets.
Beat egg whites until stiff, gradually adding scant 1/4 cup sugar while beating, and a dash of lemon extract, lemoncello, or lemon juice (whatever you have). Spread the egg white mixture out on top of the pudding while still warm, then return to oven until slightly golden brown.
Cool, and just before serving add a spoon of tart jelly in the center of the meringue of each serving.
RICE CUSTARD PUDDING
1/2 cup rice
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon dark rum (optional)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
2 cups milk
1/4 cup golden raisins
Measure out raisins and soak them in a teacup with 1 tablespoon of rum (optionally, hot water may be used).
Select long or short grain rice (do not use Minute Rice for this recipe). Wash the rice thoroughly until the water runs clear in cold running water; drain. Sprinkle rice into boiling water.
Cover and cook gently over low heat until all the water has been absorbed and rice is tender. This should take about 20 minutes.
In a medium large bowl, beat eggs using a fork. Stir in sugar, salt and nutmeg, milk, cooked rice and raisins (with rum).
Transfer mixture to a buttered 1 quart ovenproof baking dish or small CrockPot.
Bake at 325°F for 1 1/2-2 hours or high setting in a CrockPot.
Note: A CrockPot Bread N' Cake Bake pan works well in a CrockPot for this recipe. If you use one of these, add 2 cups of water to the bottom of the CrockPot to allow the pudding to steam.
A few drops of vanilla can be stirred in during the last 30 minutes of cooking for extra flavor.
