Here's how to make it: 

1. Whisk together the half and half, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt together in a bowl. Mix well.
2. Gently stir in the rice and raisins. (Be sure not to overcook the rice. It's actually better to undercook the rice for this dessert recipe. You could get creative with this recipe by adding other dried fruit like apples, cranberries, blueberries, cherries or dates.)
3. Spoon the mixture into a greased casserole dish or 9x9-inch baking pan. Smooth the top. Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 40 minutes or until sides are set but center still slightly jiggles. Remove and let the pudding sit for at least 20 minutes before serving. Store any leftovers covered in the fridge.
