Looks delicious, and straightforward in execution, but WHAT a pretty result with that golden meringue! I look forward to fixing this as I have everything needed.
It's entirely plausible that riz à l'impératrice could have been created in honor of Napoleon's marriage to Marie-Louise in 1810, but the French weren't really into her, since she replaced the more popular Joséphine. My vote goes to Empress Eugénie "Carrots" Bonaparte, who was around for much, much longer that Marie-Louise. But I suppose I'm worried too much about what's named for whom when I should be more concerned with shoveling riz au lait dishes into my pie hole.
This looks fabulous and my friends will be very surprised I could do this. Please comment on how to serve? Does it need to be warm, just our of the oven?
Question: when you say "Whisk the eggs in a heatproof bowl and then whisk in a large spoonful of the hot rice," you're talking about just the yolks, right?
OMFG

It’s as if I dreamed of a dessert!
Nice clear instructions and appears to be a classic, no nonsense dessert. Can’t wait to try it.
I'm always on the lookout for gluten free recipes and this one looks delicious, the whole family will enjoy! Thanks ;)
This looks so good! I have to try it.
