Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Short-grain white rice
- 2 cups Water
- 3 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional for garnish)
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Rinse the rice gently under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed rice with 2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
Once the water is absorbed, add the milk, heavy cream, sugar, and salt to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or scorching, for about 25–30 minutes. The mixture will thicken, and the rice will become tender and creamy.
Stir in the vanilla extract during the last minute of cooking. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
Remove the rice pudding from the heat and let it cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Spoon the rice pudding into individual serving bowls. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon over each serving for garnish.
Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
