Method

7 soļi
  1. Rub the sugar lumps hard over the lemon skins until they turn yellow and smell of lemon. With granulated sugar, grate the lemon zest finely and rub it into the sugar with your fingers.
  2. Put 850 ml of the milk in a heavy saucepan with the salt, the lemon sugar and the cinnamon stick and bring to the boil.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the rice flour to a smooth paste with the remaining 150 ml cold milk and the rose water.
  4. Pour the paste slowly into the boiling milk, whisking all the time. Turn the heat down and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom, until very thick and no longer tasting of raw flour. Take out the cinnamon stick.
  5. Rinse a fish-shaped mould and several small moulds (dariole or small loaf tins) with cold water and leave them wet. Fill them with the hot mixture, cool, then chill for at least 4 hours, until set.
  6. Pour boiling water over the currants, leave for 10 minutes and drain.
  7. Turn the fish out into the middle of a large dish and the little "loaves" around it. Decorate with the currants. Serve cold, with sweet wine or cream.

Notes

What the book says vs. what we added

boiling milk, fine rice flour mixed with milk and rose water stirred in gradually with a little salt, sugar rubbed on lemons and a piece of cinnamon (taken out later), cooked very thick with constant stirring, poured into wet moulds, turned out when cold, decorated with washed currants and eaten cold with sweet wine or cream, are the book's. So are the fish and small loaf shapes arranged on one dish. The amounts, times, chilling and plumping the currants are ours.

Moulds

any shape works; a single 1.2 l mould is fine too. Wet moulds help the cream turn out cleanly.

The title names rice fish, rice flour and rice "flowers"; the text explains only the fish and loaves. Flower-shaped moulds would fit the third name.
