¼teaspoonground allspice
1scant teaspoonorange zest (optional)
⅔cuplong-grain white rice

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325°F and have ready a greased, 2-quart casserole dish.
Add the half and half, milk, sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and zest to a large saucepan and bring to medium-high heat. Stir occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil. Stir in the rice and vanilla and remove from the heat.
Remove from the heat and carefully pour the saucepan contents into the prepared dish, and bake for 45 minutes.
Carefully remove the dish from the oven, slowly whisk to bake up any clumps (the liquid will be very hot -- do not touch), and return to the oven to bake for an additional 45 minutes more.
