Introduction:
Warm and soothing, Walnut-Raisin Pudding is perfect on a cold winter night.
Puddings need eggs to help them set. However, you can limit the yolks
to one and use more high-protein whites. Bake the pudding in a water
bath, or bain-marie, to keep it from cooking too fast and curdling.
Adding rice, fruit, nuts, or bread increases flavor and vitamins.


Serves 4.
Preparation time: 12 minutes.
Cooking time: 30 to 35 minutes.

Step 1:
Preheat oven to 325¡F. In a large mixing bowl, mix the orange juice
with the egg yolk, honey, and vanilla extract.

Step 2:
Stir in the cooked rice, raisins, and toasted walnuts. In another bowl,
whip the egg whites until soft peaks form, then carefully fold into the
mixture with a large metal spoon.


Step 3:
Pour into 4 custard dishes that have been lightly coated with vegetable
oil spray or lightly greased with vegetable oil.

Step 4:
Place custard dishes in a 13" x 9" x 2" baking pan and carefully add boiling
water to the baking pan to a depth of 1 inch. Bake, uncovered, for 30 to
35 minutes or until just set.

Tip:
Check the water in the bain-marie during cooking, and fill up as necessary
to prevent it from boiling away.
