How to Make Impossible Rice Pudding

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups whole milk and 1 cup water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until just barely simmering (small bubbles around the edges).
  2. Add 1 cup long-grain white rice, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer gently for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the pudding has thickened considerably. Stir gently halfway through.
  4. Check the rice for doneness. If it's still too firm or the pudding isn't creamy enough, continue to simmer, covered, for another 5-10 minutes, checking frequently.
  5. Remove from heat and let the rice pudding stand, covered, for at least 15 minutes. This allows it to thicken further.
  6. Serve warm or cold, sprinkled generously with freshly grated nutmeg or cinnamon. Enjoy!
