Ingredients
- 2 pints fresh liquid whey 4 cups
- 16 oz rice 2 cups. See notes under ingredients section as to what type of rice is best.
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp almond butter optional
- 8 oz cream or condensed mill
Instructions
- Place the liquid whey, honey, almond butter and cinnamon in a pot. Blend together and heat through.
- Place the rice in a sieve and run under cold water until the rice water is clear. Drain off excess water and add the rinsed rice to the pot.
- Blend well together.
- Place the lid on (very important). Bring the liquid to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, remove the lid and test the doneness of the rice. If there is still a bite, then replace the lid and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Once the rice is at a desired level of doneness, add your desired amount of cream.
