From the dessert chapter of Henriette Schønberg Erken's "Stor kokebok" (1914), page 486. Rice pudding was a typical way to use up – or make – rice porridge, and was served as a festive dessert with red sauce (berry sauce).
Cook the porridge
Wash the rice well and scald it with boiling water. Add it to the boiling milk and let the porridge cook slowly until the grains are tender, about 2 hours. Stir the bottom often.
Stir in butter and season
Pour the porridge into a bowl and immediately stir in the cold butter. Then stir in the salt, sugar, the blanched and ground almonds, and the cleaned raisins.
Eggs
Let the porridge grow completely cold. Then stir in the egg yolks, and finally fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites gently.
Bake
Pour the mixture into a greased mold dusted with rusk crumbs or sugar. Bake in a hot oven, about 200 °C (390 °F), for roughly 1 hour until the pudding is golden and firm.
Serving
Serve warm or lukewarm with red berry sauce.
Measurements are converted to modern units (liters/deciliters, grams, tbsp/tsp). "Ground almonds" is given as finely chopped/ground blanched almonds. The baking temperature is given in degrees, since the original only says "hot oven." The amount of salt is specified.
