Pumpkin Rice Pudding

I think the problem with this recipe is using orange juice in the cooking liquid for the rice. The same thing happens when you cook beans with tomatoes, the beans NEVER soften. I'm going to try this recipe WITHOUT orange juice and see how it goes.

All of the rice pudding recipes I've ever used started with cooked, maybe leftover rice. Perhaps they omitted that part. Also, most rice puddings include eggs, and the base is custard-like, even if it's a smooth stirred rice pudding. I was interested in this one, but once I read it, I don't think I'll try it unless I drastically alter it. And where is the cinnamon? nutmeg? ginger? cloves? I don't think this recipe works.

not sure where they get the cooking time, but i am approaching 50 minutes on the rice and there is not only a lot of liquid, but the rice is not tender yet. Not sure what I did wrong, but i followed the steps above to the 't'. It smells great, but it's taking forever to cook the rice

Try leaving out the orange juice and orange zest. Put in cream instead. Also light brown sugar

I love most of the recipes on this site but I have to say this was really bad. Pumpkin is number one on my list of foods but for some reason this was not good at all. My husband tried it and felt the same way - we are both pumkin lovers.

where do you see the reviews for this recipe?
