Instructions
Combine the orange peel, 2 cups water, the butter and a pinch of salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
Add the rice and return to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
Bring the milk, granulated sugar, cinnamon sticks and vanilla to a low boil in another saucepan.
Add the rice and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring, until the liquid is mostly absorbed, about 15 minutes. Stir in the grated orange zest and 1/4 cup mascarpone.
Transfer the rice pudding to a large bowl and let cool, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold and set, about 2 hours.
Beat the remaining 1/4 cup mascarpone and the confectioners' sugar in a bowl.
Remove the cinnamon sticks and orange peel from the pudding.
Serve topped with the mascarpone and cinnamon.
Recommended wine: Cream Sherry, Port, Moscato Dasti
Rice Pudding works really well with Cream Sherry, Port, and Moscato d'Asti. A common wine pairing rule is to make sure your wine is sweeter than your food. Delicate desserts go well with Moscato d'Asti, nutty desserts with cream sherry, and caramel or chocolate desserts pair well with port. The NV Solera Cream Sherry with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.

NV Solera Cream Sherry
The Solera Cream Sherry has a brilliant amber and deep copper hue. With butterscotch and pecan aromas, the sweet salted nut and brown spice aromas carry a complex caramel accent. A sweet entry leads to a rounded, lush, moderately full-bodied palate with a lengthy, flavorful finish.
