 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1      quart         Milk
    1      pint          Heavy cream
      1/2  teaspoon      Salt
    1                    Vanilla bean
      3/4  cup           Long-grained rice
    1      cup           Granulated sugar
    1                    Egg yolk
    1 1/2  cups          Whipped cream
                         Raisins (optional)
 
 In a heavy saucepan, combine the milk, cream, salt, vanilla bean and 3/4 cup
 of the sugar and bring to a boil. Stirring well, add the rice. Allow the
 mixture to simmer gently, covered, for 1 3/4 hours over a very low flame,
 until rice is soft. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Remove the
 vanilla bean. Blending well, stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and the
 egg yolk. Allow to cool a bit more. Preheat the broiler. Stir in all but 2
 tablespoons of the whipped cream; pour the mixture into individual crocks or
 a souffle dish. (Raisins my be placed in the bottom of the dishes, if
 desired.) After spreading the remaining whipped cream in a thin layer over
 the top, place the crocks or dish under the broiler until the pudding is
 lightly browned. Chill before serving.
