For an extra touch of decadence, try adding a splash of vanilla extract during the last few minutes of cooking. Consider using a combination of long-grain and short-grain rice for a unique textural experience. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking; some prefer a sweeter pudding, while others enjoy a more subtle sweetness. Garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder or a few fresh berries for an elegant presentation.

01 Step

02 Step
Recipe View 20 mins Add the uncooked white rice to the cinnamon-infused water. Reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the water, about 20 minutes. Ensure the rice is cooked through for the perfect creamy texture.
