Ingredients
Method
- Place water, rice, pinch of salt, and lemon juice and bring to boil then reduce to simmer.
- Once the mix is thickened and the rice has started to break apart whisk vigorously (careful of the hot liquid) or pulse with the immersion blender. (optional)
- Add sugar, zest, and milk
Notes
Blending the rice helps smooth it out but should still have some bits. The bright lemony flavor cuts through the richness.
If you'd like it thicker, simmer longer until you reach the consistency you love. You'll notice this is similar to most breakfast porridges—draw on what you learned there to make your rice pudding your own.
