Ingredients
Rhubarb Compote:
Method
In large bowl, stir together cream, arborio rice, granulated sugar, orange rind, vanilla and nutmeg. Scrape into 10-cup (2.5 L) baking dish. Nestle cinnamon stick in rice mixture. Cover tightly with foil. Bake in 325°F (160°C) oven for 1 hour. Stir; cover and bake for 15 minutes longer.
Meanwhile, in saucepan of boiling water, cook wild rice until tender, about 45 minutes; drain and set aside.
Remove cinnamon stick from pudding; with fork, gently mix in wild rice and whipping cream; let cool. (Make-ahead: Let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.) Sprinkle with brown sugar; broil until sugar melts and darkens slightly, about 4 minutes.
Rhubarb Compote: Meanwhile, in saucepan over medium-low heat, combine rhubarb and sugar; cook, without stirring, until softened, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool in saucepan. Serve alongside pudding.
