    List of Ingredients




    1 quart low-fat (1 percent) milk
    1 cup water
    1 cup short-grained Italian rice (see note)
    1 cup chopped mixed dried fruit
    1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    6 tablespoons half-and-half or whole milk
    1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

    Put the low-fat milk in a saucepan over medium heat. As soon as the milk starts to simmer, remove it from the heat and cover.

    In a medium-sized, heavy saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the rice and, as soon as the water returns to a boil, stir continuously for 2 minutes; the water will become starchy and will quickly be absorbed by the rice.

    Pour in the hot milk and add the mixed dried fruit, brown sugar and salt; stir well. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender but still slightly chewy and the liquid has formed a thick, creamy sauce, about 30 minutes.

    When the rice is done, add the half-and-half or whole milk, orange zest, vanilla and nutmeg. Stir and cook for about 1 minute more. Transfer to a heatproof bowl and let cool, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before serving.

    Yields 6 servings.

    Note: Arborio, Carnaroli or Vialone Nano rice may be used.
