This is a typical German recipe for Rice Pudding. For this recipe, you don't want to substitute brown rice as it won't get creamy. It is typical to sprinkle a cinnamon and sugar on top of each serving, though some prefer to add fruit, with cherries a popular choice.

MILCH REIS (GERMAN RICE PUDDING)

Delicious, creamy and simple. You can add rum-soaked raisins when you add the milk if you wish. I serve it with crushed-berry syrup or applesauce. This is the way all of my husband's family (in Germany) makes it. They generally serve it as a main dish rather than a desert, but cut down the sugar a bit.

  • Add your favorite spices and flavors: Rice pudding is a versatile dish that can be flavored in many ways. Try adding cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or vanilla extract. You can also add fresh or dried fruits, nuts, or chocolate chips.
  • Chill the rice pudding before serving: This will help to firm it up and make it more refreshing. You can serve rice pudding with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of honey.
