We love this pudding for its subtle sweetness and easy customization. Add whatever toppings you’re craving, or enjoy it cold for a refreshing option. The rice thickens slowly and absorbs honey’s rich flavors, melting into a bowl that tastes like a big, comforting hug.

Directions

Rinse the rice and drain through a sieve. Add rice, cinnamon stick, and water to a medium-sized pot set to medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cover with a lid, then reduce to low and simmer for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the evaporated milk and the honey and bring to a boil. Simmer on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture has thickened and reduces by half. Strain the rice, remove the cinnamon stick, and add the rice back to the pot. Add the ground cinnamon, milk, reduced evaporated milk and honey mixture and pinch of salt. Stir and simmer for 20 minutes. Add the raisins, if using, and cook for another few minutes before serving.
