How to Make Creamiest Rice Pudding Ever

  1. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup of Arborio rice, 4 cups whole milk, ½ cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Reduce heat to the lowest setting, add ½ cup raisins, cover the saucepan, and simmer gently for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is incredibly tender and the pudding has thickened into a creamy consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract.
  5. Let the rice pudding stand uncovered for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow it to cool slightly and the flavors to meld. This will also help thicken the pudding further.
  6. Transfer the creamy rice pudding to individual dessert dishes or a large serving bowl. Sprinkle generously with ground cinnamon before serving.
