Use Up That Leftover Rice And Treat Yourself To A Tasty Pudding
By Riya Anne Polcastro
Rice pudding is an excellent way to put that leftover rice to use and satisfy your sweet tooth at the same time. It's a perfect gluten-free dessert or even breakfast option.
Rice pudding is traditionally made from white rice. Cinnamon, milk, and sugar are standard ingredients, with some recipes varying a bit to include eggs and butter.
Rice pudding is also easy to make vegan with non-dairy milk. Vanilla extract is a common add-in, but you can opt for citrus zest or nutmeg.
Chefs often rave over rice pudding as a comfort food and enjoy putting their own twists on it, such as topping it with jam or marmalade, custard, dates, or even a bit of ice cream.
Rice pudding is more nutritious than most other desserts since rice is packed with energy and nutrients. Rice pudding is also cheap and can be served hot or cold.
