Happy belated birthday chef! I’ll make this, but I’ll use up my eggnog. Cheers!
That dessert takes me back to my childhood. My late Grandmother would make us rice pudding. She made a brown sugar butter sauce to go with it. And she had raisins in it too. Being a Kentuckian, I like a bourbon sauce on my rice pudding too.
Yum! I would add some slivered almonds!
Ugh! Baby food. Fine if you don't have teeth.Want something a bit different? Make your rice pudding with Patna rice, full fat coconut milk, cardamom seeds, star anise, saffron, jaggery and cinnamon sticks.
Ok, so Chef Pepin is using up leftovers but, frankly, you may as well open a can of supermarket rice pudding and add flavourings of choice.
Reusing everything is so old school.
The older generations wasted nothing.
Looks delicious, Chef.
I love rice pudding. it's so soothing.
Thank you for everything
That looks very tasty. I like the way he converts all of his leftovers into something spectacular
What temperature in the oven?
Going to make this for my wife this weekend!
I don't see where he "doubled again". He said usually it is 2 to 1, two cups liquid to one cup rice. Then for rice pudding he doubles it again. Then he just puts in 3 cups milke to 1 1/2 cups rice. That's double, like the usual 2 to 1.
Perfect, I always seem to have left over rice.
I've been making rice pudding a long time but have never tried sweetening it with honey. Thank you the recipe.
This is just the way my mom made it years a go.
So simple and delicious.
Fantastic! So simple too, I wouldn’t have guessed rice pudding was so easy to make.
i love these type of recipes. so simple but also so delicious and comforting. rice pudding is like the food version of a nice warm hug
I love rice pudding warm and cold – it just depends on the day. My mom made an amazing baked rice pudding. She added eggs to it so it would set when baking – kind of like a bread pudding. Thinking of this makes me miss my mom. She made wonderful potato soup, too. ❤
It never occurred to me before that there was such a thing, but I am now desperate to visit the Chinese restaurant Chef Pepin orders take-away from.
That was a Sandra Lee teaspoon of vanilla my man, good stuff.
Class act. I love your passion and your recipes. Thank you Jacques.
a great man
reusing leftover rice for pudding is great idea. what surprises me is the fact that the chef also orders the take away food!❤❤❤
