A Creamy, Comforting Classic That Tastes Like a Warm Hug
There’s something deeply soothing about old-fashioned rice pudding—the gentle simmer of rice in milk, the whisper of cinnamon, the quiet stir of a wooden spoon. It’s not flashy. It doesn’t need to be.
This humble dessert has warmed kitchens for generations: creamy, gently sweet, studded with plump raisins, and finished with a dusting of nutmeg. It’s the kind of treat that appears at church suppers, family dinners, and midnight cravings alike—a pantry-to-pot miracle that costs little but gives back so much.
And the best part? With a few simple tips, you can make it rich, velvety, and perfectly set—never watery or gluey—every single time.
