Creamed rice

Creamed rice is a delightful and comforting dish that seamlessly blends the creamy texture of milk with the tender grains of white rice. Perfect as a dessert or a sweet side dish, this simple yet rich recipe is sure to become a favorite in your household. With just a handful of ingredients, you'll be able to whip up a bowl of delicious creamed rice that can be enjoyed warm or cold.

Ingredients:

4 cups milk (1% fat)
960g
1/3 cup sugar
63g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1/2 cup white rice
120g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients: milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and white rice. Measure them out accurately to ensure the best results.
2. Combine Milk and Sugar: In a large saucepan, pour in the 4 cups of milk. Add the 1/3 cup of sugar. Stir gently to mix the sugar into the milk.
3. Heat the Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from sticking to the bottom of the pan and to help dissolve the sugar.
4. Add the Rice: Once the milk mixture starts to steam and is hot (but not boiling), add the 1/2 cup of white rice. Stir well to ensure the rice is evenly distributed.
5. Cook the Rice: Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer. Cook the rice for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. The rice should slowly absorb the milk as it cooks. Make sure to keep an eye on it and stir regularly to prevent sticking and burning.
6. Check for Doneness: After about 45 minutes, the rice should be tender and the mixture should be creamy. If the rice is not fully cooked or the mixture is too thick, you can add a little more milk and continue to cook until the desired consistency is reached.
7. Add Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well to distribute the flavor evenly.
8. Serve: The creamed rice can be served warm or at room temperature. Transfer to serving dishes and enjoy immediately if you prefer it warm, or allow it to cool.
9. Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The creamed rice can be enjoyed cold or reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop with a little added milk to restore its creamy texture.

Tips:

- Choose a thick-bottomed pot to prevent the mixture from burning or sticking.

- Stir the mixture frequently to ensure the rice cooks evenly and doesn't clump together.

- If you prefer a creamier texture, you can use whole milk instead of 1% fat milk.

- For additional flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the mix.

- Let the creamed rice cool slightly before serving so the flavors meld together better.

Creamed rice is an easy-to-make, versatile dish that is both satisfying and nostalgic. Whether you are enjoying it by itself or with a sprinkle of cinnamon, its creamy consistency and rich taste make it a perfect comfort food. Give this recipe a try and savor the simplicity and deliciousness it offers.
