Rice Pudding -- A Mexican Classic

- This Mexican classic is as simple and comforting as it gets-stirred to creaminess on the stovetop, not baked in a custard as many do in the United States.
If you’re looking for a richer dessert than this very straightforward version, beat 3 or 4 egg yolks in a bowl, then, when the simmered rice-milk-sugar mixture just begins to thicken, remove it from the fire, stir a few tablespoons in with the yolks to warm them, then return the mixture to the pan before adding the vanilla and raisins.
Or do a coconut version, replacing 2 cups of the milk with a can of coconut milk.
Here's the recipe: www.rickbayles...

This is very similar to the Rice 'Kheer' we make in India. We flavour it with cardamom instead of cinnamon. Loved the touch of roasted coconut as topping at the end.
As a kid I remember watching my abuela make arroz con leche and she'd mix do the raisins and blonde raisin mix, but she would ad the regular raisins to the pot with the rice as it boiled so they'd reconstitute inside the pot. Let that cool off as she cooked dinner and by the end of the night we had a nice cold pudding. She also used coconut milk in hers, but I don't know why we never thought of toasted coconut flakes as a garnish at the end. A few times because of how raisin-y hers was I would wake up new years day and have some with bran flakes as breakfast, but that is a new addition I need to try.
I'd also say, Mango sticky rice is like 2 degrees away from arroz con leche... thats a good little fusion dessert I've been trying to perfect and each time it gets better, substitute the raisins for dried mango, finished with some sweetened coconut milk on top mixed with a can of jumex mango nectar, topped with some flakey salt. I'm not lying ya'll... its fantastic
I just made this and it came out so good. I used half and half and the coconut milk. Great combination. I love it. Thank you
I love rice pudding
Looks great.
Rick, that looks divine.. the last touches, superb ! Maybe a couple slivered Almonds, too..
Thank you for sharing. I've been looking for a good rice pudding recipe. There are too many ways to do it, but all the recipes I made from you are being FOOLPROOF like enchiladas, mole, green tamales. So, definitely I am going to make your rice pudding.
This was SO GOOD. I took your advice and used organic sugar and coconut milk, and the whole thing was divine. So sophisticated and subtly fragrant while still being total comfort food. Thank you for this recipe!
The best comfort food. And you made it better❤
Made some for my little 92 year old neighbor a few weeks ago. She loved it! Always had this growing up. For breakfast or dessert. Mom added raisins to it and I would spit them out. I had a pile of mushy raisins next to my bowl 😂
This is not the typical atole I grew up with but it does look delicious. As someone who loves both limes and coconut, this is a recipe worth trying at least once for me.
This is similar to what my grandmother would make. She called it "sweet rice".
Looks so delicious. Reminds me of growing up and either our mom or dad fixing rice pudding for breakfast, I loved the raisins.
Nice! It’s similar with my everyday morning vegan outmeal porridge😊 Cheers🍀
Rick ahora queremos nieve de leche quemada . Dios te bendice viejon ❤
This is how I've always liked my rice pudding but coconut milk was hard to find and was too expensive. I often used half and half instead. I never thought of lime in it though. I'm a Floridian so I think I'll use orange in mine instead 😊. Great recipe. I've even made it with vermicelli when I had no rice😅.
I LOVE rice pudding. I’ll have to try this recipe. My current favourite is Jose Andres’ Arroz Con Leche
Interesting take on Arroz con Leche with the lime, coconut milk & toasted shavings. Ingredients my mother never would have thought to make it with. She made this comfort dessert with carnation 'pet' milk and a bit more raisins. The vanilla and canela stick still remains the authentic way to put this recipe all together.
arroz con leche, me quiero casar💃
Can we get a kitchen and house tour? Those lamps alone 😮
The ceiling lamps? Or the table lamps?

hi good morning😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A Classic 😊
English classic rice pudding is the best.
Hmmmm delicious
Thank-you ❤ 🍋🟩
4:11 😂😂😂😂😂he reads minds too
The consistency of chowder.
So, no washing the rice?
IS ARROZ CON LECHE
I must be using the wrong rice because mine routinely turns out mushy. I like the combo of creamy rice with al dente grains mixed in.
---Coconut sugar will contribute its own flavor profile as well.
---That cooked cinnamon stick I'd save for use in horchata.
My grandma puts raisins in it ... nothing else
Nah. Lost me with the lime and not washing the rice.🧐
I suggest micro-planing the zest and using Okinawa black sugar and ginger.
Thank you for sharing.
Ginger in Arroz con Leche?? 😂😂🤮
Add mct oil 😉
But where is Laney!?!
With everything you put in it, it's no longer a Mexican Classic.
Please don't call it a Mexican Classic when you change the recipe. Mexicans don't use lemon zest in this, nor do they use coconut flakes on top. Also, never heard of Mexicans using coconut milk, rather, they use condensed milk. Water in this recipe is a no-no.
Sorry, Rick Bayless. I’ve admired you and loved your cooking for years.
Coconut and lime in Arroz con leche isn’t traditional here in Mexico.
But cooking the rice in water makes it taste awful. You ALWAYS cook it in milk. THAT’S what you do for richness! Not coconut milk 🤮
And no salt, please. Not here
Maybe is not on the region were you live but in my state we do use either orange or lime peel and we also cook the rice in water first...let's not generalized
One thing for sure, either way is delicious 😋
@ coconut milk and coconut shavings? Really? I don’t think so, buttercup!
I know people boil the rice in water sometimes, but it waters down the richness, in the end. I was very clear.
It’s very simple. The rice absorbs water when you do that. If you cook it in milk, it absorbs milk. Guess which option yields the richest, tastiest arroz con leche? Water has NO PLACE in arroz con leche. Plain and simple!
It makes no sense to try to add richness with some things, but cancel it out with something else. That was the point I made.
I hate raisins too, but I understand they ARE common in rice pudding so I get that part.
So there! MY two cents.
@VPp2297 Out of curiosity, would you share the region that uses lime? I have heard of orange used. Ty
His is better than anything you make or tried. 🤡
Never heard of sweet and salty? Salt basically helps any dessert.
That’s arroz con leche, it’s not rice pudding. I’m Mexican and I know the difference
It's the same thing, just different method and name, you'll find rice pudding everywhere around the world, some cultures having cooked it centuries before rice and milk ever existed here
@ you ain’t Mexican obviously 🙄
@@salasamsung452 you sound like such a posho. Nevertheless, you don't even need to be mexican to recognize rice pudding is almost universal with arroz con leche just being another variant, you just need to know enough about cooking
Very nice 👍 please write on the screen also the things you used.you speak slightly slowly so that I can get Thanks.Igot it . From Pakistan
