I always remember eating rice pudding as a child, and as an adult I have tried several different recipes with no success. Then I decided to take what I have learned from all the recipes I tried and make my own recipe. I finally have a rice pudding that reminds me of my childhood, is easy to make, and the rice does not come out hard.
