Tips:

  • Choose the right rice. Short-grain rice, such as Arborio or Carnaroli, is best for rice pudding because it absorbs more liquid and becomes creamy.
  • Rinse the rice well before cooking. This will remove any starch and help the rice cook evenly.
  • Use whole milk or half-and-half for a richer flavor. You can also use a combination of milk and water.
  • Add sugar and vanilla extract to taste. You can also add other spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger.
  • Cook the rice pudding over low heat, stirring frequently. This will prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Cover the rice pudding while it is cooking. This will help it to cook evenly.
  • Serve the rice pudding warm or cold. You can also top it with whipped cream, fruit, or nuts.

Conclusion:

Stovetop rice pudding is a classic comfort food that is easy to make. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can enjoy a delicious and creamy dessert. Whether you serve it warm or cold, topped with your favorite ingredients, rice pudding is sure to please everyone at the table.
