Dolly asks and, I'm sooooo glad you did...
Brilliant and worth a front page blog
Q&A...


Dolly:

Susan, you mentioned breast feeding 5, did you donate milk? I really wanted to with my two but couldn't (hereditary issue) I wish I could have found someone to donate smile Not too PC in the USA.



You couldn't be more right...
Beyond not PC, it's illegal
"transporting breast milk"
Swear, I heard it right from
The men who make
The law and
As with many things
A complete waste of
One of Our most
Valuable resources
Wasteful and stupid
Which is the theme
Look around...

So I, and 20 other
Women donated
Anyway...
And, what a story
It is
Being told, as
I write Mothering
Menopause and
Madness which
I am now...

Yes, you
Are absolutely
Right...and, a
Joy!

Shaun: Here's your Toasted Almond Rice Pudding

8 SERVINGS
EGG-& DAIRY-FREE
For best flavor and texture, be sure this pudding is thoroughly chilled before serving. If you like cinnamon, sprinkle a generous amount on top.

1 1/4 cups blanched slivered almonds (5 oz.)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup uncooked rice (such as arborio, basmati or jasmine)
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, or 2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup plus 1 Tbs. maple syrup or 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbs. maple sugar
Fresh strawberries and mint sprigs for garnish

1. Preheat oven to 350 [degrees] F. Spread almonds on baking sheet and bake until golden, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven; set aside to cool.

2. In medium saucepan, bring 1 cup water and salt to a boil over high heat. Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until water is absorbed and rice is tender, 16 to 20 minutes, depending on type of rice.

3. Meanwhile, chop 1/4 cup toasted almonds and set aside for garnish. In blender, combine remaining 1 cup toasted almonds and 1 cup water. Blend until mixture is smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1 3/4 cups water and blend until smooth, about 1 minute.

4. Strain almond "milk" through cheesecloth into cooked rice in saucepan, squeezing out as much liquid as possible. (Or, strain "milk" through fine-mesh sieve several times before adding to rice.)

5. If using vanilla bean, scrape seeds into rice mixture with tip of knife then add bean, or stir in vanilla extract. Stir in maple syrup, return to a simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Transfer pudding to a bowl, removing vanilla bean if using. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

6. To serve, spoon rice pudding into dessert dishes, sprinkle with reserved almonds and garnish with strawberries and mint sprigs.
