3/4 c Raisins

The Japanese call these rice dumplings obagies.
DIRECTIONS ========== Bring water to boil in a 2-quart saucepan. Add rice
and salt, cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook for one hour. (Check to see
if more water must be added to prevent sticking.) Remove from heat and let
cool for 5 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix half the raisins and half the cinnamon into half of the rice and
process mixture thoroughly through a grain mill. (If you do not have a
grain mill, use a Champion Juicer with a grinder attachment or pound
mixture into a paste in a wooden bowl.) Repeat with remaining rice,
raisins and cinnamon.
Place walnuts on a baking sheet and roast in oven and let cool. Coarsely
grind or finely chop walnuts.
Measure rice ito 2 1/2 tablespoon portions. Moisten hands and shape
dumplings.
Roll each dumpling in walnuts to coat. Serve immediately.

HINTS: To speed up cooking process, place rice in a pressure cooker with 2
1/4 cups of water and cook for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from heat and let
cool until pressure goes down.
Dumplings can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. Reheat in
oven when ready to serve.
