In a 4 quart pot combine rice, milk, and salt.
Cook on medium heat for approximately 30 minutes or longer until rice is tender.
Stir often about every 2 minutes with a wooden spoon/spatula.
Milk will NOT be all absorbed.
If desired add 1 cup raisins, cook for 5 minutes ( I do not prefer raisins but lots of people do)
In a large bowl add the 4 eggs, whisk them well, then add the evaporated milk, sugar, and vanilla.
Add the rice mixture to the egg mixture.
Turn heat down lower stirring constantly for 3 more minutes.
Pour into 2.5 quart serving dish or individual glasses and top with nutmeg.
I prefer rice pudding served chilled.
