Tips and tricks on the orange rice pudding with the thermomix

10 tips and tricks about the thermomix recipe

• Use high-quality round rice : Choose a high-quality round rice, such as Arborio rice or dessert rice, to achieve a creamy and melting texture.
• Rinse the rice before cooking : Rinse the rice with cold water to remove excess starch and prevent it from sticking during cooking.
• Prepare the orange zest properly : Use a fine grater to only remove the colored part of the orange peel. Avoid the white part that can give a bitter flavor.
• Infuse the orange zest in the milk : Add the orange zest to the milk and heat slightly to infuse the orange flavor before adding the rice.
• Control the temperature : Set the Thermomix temperature to 90°C for a gentle and uniform cooking of the rice pudding.
• Stir regularly : During cooking, stir the rice, milk, and orange zest mixture regularly to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the Thermomix.
• Add sugar at the right time : Add the sugar at the end of cooking, when the rice is well cooked and the preparation is still hot, so that it dissolves easily.
• Adjust the cooking time according to the desired texture : If you prefer a creamier rice pudding, slightly reduce the cooking time. If you prefer a firmer rice, slightly extend the cooking time.
• Let it rest before serving : After cooking, let the orange zest rice pudding rest for a few minutes to thicken and develop flavor.
• Serve chilled or warm : The orange zest rice pudding can be enjoyed chilled or warm, according to your preferences. If serving chilled, refrigerate it for a few hours before serving.
