I got myself confused, but the rice pudding I make doesn't have much sugar either. I use good vanilla extract in it, and I add raisins, and I give it a good sprinkle of cinnamon. |

In the great scheme of things, it won't matter if you don't have those exact correct ingredients. Regular whipping cream can easily be substituted for double cream. And if you need caster sugar, just process some regular sugar in a blender for a few minutes. Doris |

Trust me, it is not essential ![]() > in the ones I had growing up. Nutmeg is something I can't take much of. I do use it in some things but never more than a pinch. I think this stems from (yes I've told this story before) an apple pie that my dad brought home from a work potluck. The guy's wife had made two. One was only partially eaten and the other was intact. That's the one my dad brought home. He said everyone who had tried the other one had complained about it. The woman had put sooo much nutmeg in it that the filling was dark brown. We couldn't eat it. |

It was to taste. My Grandmother used to make rice pudding, and I LOVED it! Think and rich, with raisins, cinnamon, AND nutmeg. And now, 70 years later, STILL love it, when it's done right. Tapioca is fine, so is custard, but a good rice pudding is sublime! |

I see that it is but it's very expensive. I also see that "Baker's Sugar" comes up as that. I tried that stuff once. Horrible. Tried it in cookies that I had made countless times before and it ruined the texture. |

I suppose if you left it in the blender for long enough you'd get powdered sugar, but not if you only processed it for a minute or two. http://www.differencebetween.info/di...nd-icing-sugar Doris |

Perhaps that's not enough to worry about in this recipe. Cindy Hamilton |

I didn't preheat it, it all went into the dish, was topped with plenty of fresh grated nutmeg and into the oven. Simple dish, tasting great. |
