Christmas Rice Pudding image

My heritage is Swedish and this recipe is known among Swedes as "grut". My Grandma Anna would make it every Christmas Eve, and we would eat it with cream poured over. Grandma always put a cinnamon stick and one almond in the rice before serving. Whoever found the almond was supposed to get married next, according to tradition.

I thought this rice pudding was just okay. It was a little too sweet for my taste and the texture was a bit too firm. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This rice pudding was a disaster! I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out lumpy and bland. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.
