How to Make Arroz Con Dulce
- Rinse 1 cup of medium-grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in 3 cups of cold water for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to soften.
- Drain the soaking water from the rice.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the drained rice and 3 cups of fresh water. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, add 4 whole cloves and 1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick. Stir gently and simmer, uncovered, for about 20-25 minutes, or until most of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Stir in 1 (12-ounce) can of evaporated milk, 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup raisins, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Continue to simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for another 20-25 minutes, or until the remaining liquid has evaporated and the rice pudding has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Transfer the Arroz con Dulce to a greased casserole dish or serving bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of ground cinnamon.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to chill completely.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy!
