I say follow your instinct and proceed as you see fit, with whole rice grains cooked in milk (I would do it this way and I'm Swiss) and maybe even some cream stirred into the cooled filling - just to fully embrace that indulgent Easter feeling. :-) And go for the rasperries by all means, it sounds great! I don't believe in this you can't add this or it won't be traditional. I'm like you and love to try those traditional dishes from other cultures and religions, too. I've had an eye on that babka...

We pronounce it 'Pizza Guadagaut' but call it 'Italian Easter Cheesecake' so most people understand. Have you heard of this recipe before? It's really wonderful!

Is the final texture anything like mochi? I've only recently discovered mochi but it is a great treat! The Whole Foods near me sells a ready to bake chocolate walnut mochi by the brand Grainaissance that is made with brown rice. It's really delicious! - <a href="http://www.peanutbutterboy.com" rel="nofollow">The Peanut Butter Boy</a> Very interesting dish, I’ve never heard of anything like this before.

I think it was almost too sticky and eventually became very mushy. I'll have to try it again with the long grain and hopefully I'll have the same great results like you did! Keeping my fingers crossed.... I made something like this a few years back using a sweet, sticky rice. I think it was almost too sticky and eventually became very mushy.

I am immediately turned off by any mention of rice in sweet dishes (rice pudding, Indian rice desserts, etc.). Now I feel like my rice prejudice has been justified by the blandness! Everyone always tells me I am unreaosnable, but no more! Raspberries and fruit sauce make ANYTHING delicious, though :) Hmm… I am immediately turned off by any mention of rice in sweet dishes (rice pudding, Indian rice desserts, etc.).

Pastry Studio also posted a gateau de Riz recipe in their blog and I told them the same thing. My family makes a similar tart and it's to die for. Golden brown top, puff pastry tartlet... delicious!
