Salt Cinnamon Raisins Place Milk, Rice and Sugar and a pinch of salt into Crock on Hi. Cook for 1 and half hours. Stir and at this time if you like raisins add them, a couple of hands full and sprinkle in some cinnamon. Cook for another 1.5 hours keeping a check on the last hour stirring often. As soon as it starts to thicken turn it off if you like it real creamy, let cook longer if you like it thick. It will thicken a lot after it cools. I use skim milk, omit the butter, and sometimes if I have it on hand add a can of evaporated milk, gives a little creamer taste, but either way it is just as good this way and a lot less fat etc.
