Instructions
For the cake:
- Soak the raisins in warm water.
- In a saucepan place the following: 2 cups whole milk, salt, vanilla bean, 85 grams(3 oz) sugar, orange peel and 60 grams (2 oz) of butter. Bring to a boil.
- Add the rice, and cook until it has absorbed all the milk.
- Turn off heat, remove the vanilla bean and allow the rice to cool.
- Add to the cooled rice: two egg yolks, rum, the ground almonds and the raisins (slightly squeezed to remove water). Stir well with a wooden spoon.
- Beat the two egg whites with an electric mixer until they form stiff peaks. It is very important that the beaten egg whites are perfectly solid like a snow ball.
- Fold the beaten egg whites into the cooled rice.
- Butter 4 single portion pudding dishes or ramekins, fill them with the rice mixture and bake in 360º F oven for 35 minutes.
- While the rice cakes are cooking, prepare the chocolate sauce.
- Break the chocolate into pieces and combine the chocolate pieces with 1 tablespoon milk and ground nutmeg. Melt over a hot water bath while stirring continuously with a wire whisk.
- Remove the cakes from the oven and cool a few minutes. Unmold the rice cakes and serve warm. Just before serving pour the hot chocolate sauce on top of the cakes and sprinkle with a little Turbinado sugar.
