Bavarian Rice Dessert

Ingredients:
1 1/2 pints milk
Lemon peel
1/2 cup rice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. flavoring
1 ounce (2 tbsp.) granulated gelatin (Knox)
1/2 cup cold water
1 cup heavy cream
Strawberries

Method:
Put the milk and a few thin cuts of lemon peel into a double boiler. When it is hot, stir in the well-washed rice and salt. Cook until the rice is perfectly tender. The milk should be nearly absorbed, leaving the rice very moist. Add to the hot cooked rice the flavoring, the sugar and gelatin, which has been soaked in the cold water, and mix carefully. When the mixture is beginning to set, fold in the cream, whipped stiff. Pour into a mold and chill. Serve with sweetened crushed strawberries. The white mold with red sauce makes an attractive combination.
