Risengrød: Danish Rice Pudding Recipe

From the Kitchen of Brittany Watson Jepsen:

The success of this recipe comes in the quality of the ingredients. We use the best milk and best butter. If you want to be a real Dane, DO NOT mix the cinnamon and sugar and butter into the rice at the end.

3 DL of water
180g of sushi rice
1 L of whole milk
1/4 teaspoon of salt
cinnamon and sugar
butter to top

get water boiling with rice
once no water left, put in milk
turn heat to Medium Low
stir until thick porridge—can take up to an hour
Top it off with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar (read: COVER THE WHOLE THING!) and a chunk of butter. I like to add more and more as I deplete it.

Enjoy!

NOTE: The image in the post contains A LOT of cinnamon sugar. It’s an aggressive amount. Start with a sprinkle and adjust to your personal preference! And of course – remember to add your chunk of butter!
