Description

This classic rice pudding offers a luxurious, creamy texture with a comforting sweetness. The combination of slow-simmered rice and milk creates a tender base, enriched by butter and sugar. Eggs are folded in to create a custard-like finish, while saffron and bitter almonds add a sophisticated aromatic depth. It is a perfect dessert for cozy evenings or family gatherings. Serve warm or chilled for a delightful treat that highlights the simple elegance of traditional baking.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC) and grease a large baking dish.
  2. Combine rice and milk in a heavy saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the milk, about 45 minutes.
  4. Stir in butter and sugar until fully melted and incorporated into the rice mixture.
  5. Remove from heat and allow the rice mixture to cool to room temperature.
  6. Beat eggs in a separate bowl, then whisk them into the cooled rice mixture.
  7. Add crumbled saffron and chopped bitter almonds to the mixture and stir gently to combine.
  8. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  9. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the pudding is set and lightly golden on top.
