  • Growing up with a single mom all the ingredients she had was rice,milk,sugar,and cinnamon. No need for fancy milk to make it taste good.

    You probably won’t see this but I found your video very helpful! my girlfriend is Hispanic and shared this is one of her favorite dishes, wanting to be romantic I learned how to make it (with your help from the video!) and let her mom try it first to make sure it was up to standard 🤣 and it was!! They both loved it and while this happened a month ago. I’ve come back to recap myself since I’m making it again and I read the blurb in the caption and just wanted to share that you really helped me out as me and her are doing great! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes, I hope you’re doing great 💛💛💛💐🌻

    Thank you so much for this recipe! I used it for my culminating exam in my hospitality class and everyone loved it ! It sure stood out from the rest of the savoury dishes and my first try making it turned out delicious‼️👏

    Love rice pudding, this looks amazing!! Cant wait to try it!
  • Tried this and it was hella good 🤤 Two suggestions: If you dont like things suuper sweet then do less than 1/2 cup of sugar. Or just do the condensed milk and add as you go. And If you like youre arroz con leche on the watery side then youre going to need some more milk cause this one is thick af like pudding.

    4 cups of water with three cinnamon stick a bri g to a boil. Then add (rinsed rice 1 cup and 1/2) to boiling water stir bring heat down to medium. When your rice is cooked, your still gonna have a little water. Add 2 cans evaporated milk, then add i1 can sweet Condensed milk. Let it simmer till a soft thickness. Off heat let stand till pudding like, stir refrigerate couple hours serve with cinnamon 😋

    I don't know about anyone else but in my household growing up my mami would let it stick a little at the end and stir right before serving. Let me tell you those little brown bits gave it such a light smokey flavor. It's the only way my kids will eat to this day😂 And the only milk used is evaporated milk so we up the sugar a bit. Yummy!!
  • I made this right now your exact way and omg the house fell in love 🤗🥰
  • @mpignone1713
    thank you for sharing, your so much better than other videos I've been watching no drama. love you
  • Thank you for the video. My mom always made Sweet Rice for me. My usually only used cinnamon, vanilla, evaporated milk and sugar, every now and then she would add raisins. I like it cold or warm, and always with extra cinnamon!
  • I love this dessert.i wish to make it for thanksgiving.very beautiful.
  • Thank you elvee, I've been using the same ingredients in the same proportions probably since before you were born. But this is the first time I cooked the rice first in water only. What a great difference. I Thank You, and my daughters thank you also.
