Almond cream



Happy New Year to all of you.

4 oz almonds without skin, grind to a smooth paste
2 cups milk
1 oz rice flour mix with about 3 tbsp milk
4 oz sugar
2 tbsp pistachios or coconut ground to garnish

Boil the sugar and milk. When the sugar dissolves, add the rice flour paste and almond paste. Reduce the heat and simmer for 25 minutes until it thickens. Cool in individual cups.

    I adore almond cream - the Italians make something similar - but love the idea of trying this with the rice flour. Happy New Year!

    Almond cream does sound delicious. I never really thought of using almond paste with dairy to make cream, but by the looks of this I wish I had. Delicious post! Happy New Year!
