⭐ Introduction

Old-fashioned rice pudding is the kind of dessert that tastes like home. Warm… creamy… sweet… comforting…
It’s pure nostalgia in a bowl — the dessert your grandmother may have simmered on the stove, filling the whole house with that soft vanilla smell.
This recipe is simple, cozy, and unbelievably creamy, made with just a handful of ingredients and a whole lot of love.

Serve it warm on a chilly evening or cold straight from the fridge. Either way, it’s heaven.

🛒 Ingredients

Rice Pudding Base

1 cup white rice (long-grain or medium-grain)
2 cups whole milk
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Add-Ins

½ teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of nutmeg
½ cup raisins or golden raisins
Butter pat for extra richness

🍳 Instructions

Cook the rice:
Add rice and 2 cups of water to a pot. Cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
Warm the milk mixture:
In a separate saucepan, heat milk, heavy cream, and sugar over medium heat until warm (don’t boil).
Add cooked rice:
Stir rice into the warm milk mixture. Reduce heat to low and simmer 10–12 minutes, stirring often.
Whisk eggs:
In a bowl, lightly beat eggs. Slowly add ½ cup of the hot milk mixture to the eggs (tempering).
Combine:
Pour egg mixture back into the pot. Stir constantly until thickened and creamy (5–7 minutes).
Flavor:
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Add cinnamon or raisins if desired.
Serve warm or chilled — both ways are irresistible.

🥣 Method (Chef Breakdown)

Tempering the eggs keeps them from scrambling and makes the pudding silky.
Heavy cream gives richness and that old-fashioned texture.
Simmering slowly allows starch from the rice to naturally thicken the pudding.
Frequent stirring prevents sticking and creates creamy perfection.

🕰 History

Rice pudding exists in nearly every culture — from ancient Persia to old European kitchens, all the way to American farmhouses.
It became especially popular in the early 1900s as a simple, inexpensive dessert made from pantry staples: rice, milk, sugar, and eggs.
It was comfort food then — and it remains comfort food today.

🧩 Formation (How It All Comes Together)

Rice absorbs milk to become soft and creamy
Eggs thicken naturally into custard
Sugar sweetens the mixture
Vanilla adds warmth
Cream finishes it with richness

These layers blend into a dessert that feels like a hug in a bowl.
