Rice Pudding

Rice Pudding
Patiently waiting for the rice pudding to be just right! Not too thick, not too thin.

While some people like rice pudding as a dessert, I always think of it as a breakfast dish. I like the texture of rice pudding better than tapioca, and with some salt and cinnamon added there is a nice complexity to the flavors.

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup rice

Instructions
 

  • Bring the rice, water and salt to a boil and simmer until the water is absorbed (about 15 minutes). If the rice isn’t plump and fluffy enough you can add some more water.
