The warm and comforting taste of rice pudding has been appreciated for ages. It comes in many forms, is deliciously creamy, sweet, and filling, and is easy to prepare. Many individuals, however, mistakenly believe that rice pudding preparation necessitates a great deal of time and work, when in fact this is not always the case. Here, we’ll demonstrate how to whip up a simple stovetop rice pudding that’ll do the trick for your dessert cravings.

When it came to baking desserts, no one could compare to my Aunt Janice. Every day of the week, you could nearly guarantee, if you dropped by her house, you’d find something new to eat. We all enjoyed her delicious meals, which she took great pleasure in preparing for us. Maybe my mom would take us there if they had better sweets. Although she tried, she just wasn’t very good at baking. She had cooking skills, but sweets weren’t her specialty.

Her rice pudding was one of my favorite desserts of all time. In fact, I had to try it several times before I worked up the courage to try it for real. Considering that I was never a huge fan of rice to begin with, this felt odd to me. Nonetheless, I was eventually persuaded to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did!
I was astounded at how easy this recipe was to follow when I found it on All Recipes. I remember Aunt Janice putting in a lot of effort to perfect her rice pudding. My children had an instant liking to this one, and it didn’t take any effort on my part

Quick Tip: Before adding the egg yolk to the whole batch, whisk it into a tiny bit of rice.

Ingredients:

Toasted almonds, 1/2 cup

Salted water, 1 cup

The equivalent of half a stick of margarine

Milk, one quart

3 eggs

Half a cup of sugar

The equivalent of one teaspoon of vanilla essence

Cinnamon and nutmeg, to taste, 1 teaspoon

1/2 cup of raw rice

Instructions:

Put some water in a large, heavy pan or slow cooker and bring it to a boil.

Put the rice in a pot of lightly salted water and bring it to a boil over low heat, without stirring. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the contents cook for 7 minutes.

Using the fork you have on hand, combine the milk, butter, and sugar after the seven minutes are up.

To get the greatest results, you should re-boil the rice and then simmer it over low heat for at least an hour, preferably more. This will give the rice a lovely, sticky texture and flavor.

Mix the vanilla extract, sugar, and raisins into the beaten eggs. the eggs and rice should be poured into a bowl and stirred together to create a thicker consistency. When the pudding has cooled, it will thicken up considerably. Let it cool almost entirely before taking it and adding a few more ingredients if you want it to be even thicker.

While any of these items can be omitted if desired, they will give your rice pudding an extraordinary flavor if used together. Combine evaporated and normal ingredients and pour them in. After it has cooled down, you can then modify the seasoning by adding nutmeg and cinnamon, if desired. After everything has cooled down, whisk some cream and put it on top of the mixture for a visually appealing and delicious finishing touch. You can make it your own by substituting in items that are special to you.

Tips and Tricks:

Use half-and-half or heavy cream instead of milk for a richer, creamier pudding.
The pudding’s flavor and texture can be improved by adding various mix-ins, such as raisins or chopped almonds.
You should refrigerate any pudding that you don’t use right away. It has a potential shelf life of 5 days.

Read on for some answers to your most pressing questions about making rice pudding in a saucepan:

Is it possible to use brown rice instead of white rice?

Brown rice can be substituted for white rice, however the cooking time and liquid ratios may need to be adjusted to achieve the desired texture. Brown rice needs more time to cook and can absorb more liquid than white rice, so you may need to adjust your cooking time and liquid accordingly.

I’d like my rice pudding to be creamier, but I’m not sure how.
Creamier results can be achieved by substituting half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk in your rice pudding. The pudding can be made thicker and creamier by adding an additional egg yolk to the mix.

Do you think I could use vegan substitutes in this recipe?

Using a plant-based milk like almond or coconut milk in place of dairy milk will make the dish vegan. Vegan alternatives to sugar include maple syrup and agave nectar.

In a fridge, how long does rice pudding last?

Keep your rice pudding in the fridge for up to 5 days. Keep it in an airtight container so it doesn’t dry out or pick up any of the refrigerator’s other flavors.

Is it safe to freeze rice pudding?

Putting rice pudding in the freezer is fine, but defrosting it may cause it to lose some of its creamy consistency. The pudding can be frozen when it has cooled to room temperature and been stored in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag. Two months of freezing time is acceptable. You may thaw it overnight in the fridge if you put it there. You can reheat it on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
