Steps:
- Pour rice into a bowl, and fill it with cold water. Swirl the grains, using your fingers. Tip out any starchy water, and repeat until water runs almost clear.
- Combine rice and water in a pot: For most long-grain and medium-grain rice, pair 1 cup rice and 1 1/3 cups water. For short-grain rice, use 1 cup rice and 1 cup water. For most brown rice, combine 1 cup rice and 1 3/4 cups water. The rice and water should not come more than halfway up the sides of your pot; the mixture will double in volume as it cooks.
- Bring water to a hard boil over medium-high heat. The water's entire surface should break with big, constant bubbles. As soon as water is boiling, give it a vigorous stir with a spatula or wooden spoon, making sure to scrape at any grains at the bottom of the pot. Cover it with a lid and turn the heat to low.
- Cook long-grain and medium-grain rice for 15 minutes; short-grain varieties for 20 minutes; and brown rice for 30 minutes.
- When allotted time has passed, or when you hear a change in sound - if you listen closely, you'll notice the sounds will slowly change from a bubbly simmer to a steamy sort of flutter - turn off heat and let rice rest for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh milk, cream, and rice. You can also use flavored milks, such as chocolate or vanilla, to create different flavor variations.
- Cook the rice pudding slowly and gently. This will help to prevent the rice from becoming overcooked and mushy. Stir the pudding frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the pudding from scorching.
- Be patient. Rice pudding takes time to cook. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with a pudding that's not cooked through.
- Serve the rice pudding warm or cold. Rice pudding can be enjoyed both ways. If you're serving it warm, top it with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon. If you're serving it cold, chill it for at least 2 hours before serving.
Conclusion:
Rice pudding is a classic comfort food that's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, it's the perfect dessert for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious dessert, give rice pudding a try. You won't be disappointed.
