HOW TO MAKE PORTUGUESE RICE PUDDING: Traditional, Delicious Recipe my Portuguese Hubby Approves

- If you don't know this already, I married into a Portuguese family, and Portuguese Rice Pudding happens to be my mother-in-law's specialty. She doesn't cook anymore, but this is what she used to make for us every time we visited. It's very similar to what we make in my culture (arroz con leche), but it's creamier, thicker and sweeter....definitely a pudding. In short, it's DELICIOUS! I've watched my mother-in-law make it through the years, but now, in honor of her 100th birthday on November 27, 2022, I thought it was time for me to make it...and, if it's good enough, I'd take her some for her birthday. In this video you'll see how I make Portuguese Rice Pudding, and guess what? My hubby approves. Read on for the recipe.
Portuguese Rice Pudding
1 1/2 cups short grain rice (I use Jasmine)
4 cups of whole milk to start (may add more later)
1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)
1 cup of sugar
2 large pieces of lemon rind or 2 tsp. lemon extract
1 cinnamon stick
powdered cinnamon for garnish
Place 4 cups of milk into a large sauce pan and set burner to medium high. As it begins to warm, add the lemon rind, the cinnamon stick, the butter and the sugar. Stir until all the butter is melted and milk is heated. Add in rice and reduce heat to low so that rice cooks at a low simmer for approximately 30 minutes, or until rice is fully cooked. Stir continuously to ensure it doesn't stick. (If liquid is absorbed before all the rice is cooked, you may need to add more milk.) When rice is fully cooked, place egg yolks in small bowl and lightly whisk them. You'll need to temper the eggs by taking about a Tbsp. of the hot rice and mixing it into the eggs. Then add a little more hot rice to the eggs and mix until the temperature of the eggs is gradually heated. Then pour the egg mixture into the hot pan of rice that should still be on the stovetop. Mix and continue cooking another 5 minutes, then remove cinnamon stick and lemon rind. Take rice pudding off the stove and pour into a shallow dish. Sprinkle with additional powdered cinnamon and let cool before eating.

Congratulations to your mother in law who turned 100 one year ago. The rice pudding looks good. Thanks for the recipe.
I love rice pudding, so this is right up my alley. I also liked the way you did the crosshatch with cinnamon. And let’s not forget to wish your Mother in Law a very Happy Birthday!!
It's a very traditional pattern on Portuguese rice pudding, but I had never done it before. Thanks so much for the comment and for the birthday wishes.😊
I'm so glad I found your channel! I love your videos and I am going to make this tomorrow!! I love to eat it when it warm and with raisins!
Good morning Marcy, and happy birthday to your mother in law, from Arizona 💯🎂
Thanks so much for watching and for the birthday wishes. We took her to the Grand Canyon for her 90th birthday, and she loved Arizona.🌵
Wow a hundred years old! Congratulations to her on living a full beautiful life
Thank you. My mother-in-law spent the majority of her life cooking. She's more than earned the right to have others cook for her now.❤️
My husband loves rice pudding, I bet he'd love the addition of the lemon rind. I'm not much on it, but I would like to eat again something an old friend who has long passed away used to make, she called it "majarete". She was from Puerto Rico, her family had fled Spain and were then in Puerto Rico and later New York. I wish I had asked more of her story, but I remember she used to make majarete. And I only liked it cold and in small amounts. She put it in small glass dishes. I think she used a rice flour. I'll have to look it up.
Nice, your subscribership is growing!
I really love the subtle lemon flavor, although it's not used every time in Portuguese rice pudding. Majarete sounds interesting. I just looked it up and was able to get a good idea of what it must taste like. Yum! I'd love to try it.
I am going to have to make this. It looks super delicious! Your mother-in-law is going to love it!
It's dangerously good. Tony and I ended up eating all of this one so I had to make a fresh batch in order to take some to my mother-in-law. You'll have to let me know if you try it.
Liking for the beagle 😆
Awe. Thank you! She's my baby.
My NM Mom made it very similar, but used all milk, no water and made meringue with the egg whites and folded it in. For my vegetarian family she would leave out the egg.
That’s interesting. I’m guessing the meringue made is more airy. And how nice that she would make a vegetarian version, too. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
we love rice pudding. love your channel 😇
I will try ❤
Gracias!!❤😊
Gunna try ur recipe! Yum! 😋
Hope you like it. Thanks for watching!
Thank you this video was so helpful!!
You're so welcome!
Looks good and it seems pretty easy to make.
I love Portuguese Rice Pudding. It is easy to make, but I was a little nervous making it this time. Lol 😅
What would you give a loved one on their 100th birthday!?! It's not as easy to come up with gift ideas as you might think. But I'd love to hear any suggestions. 💯👌
Looks good 😊
Thanks for watching!
I love all forms of rice pudding! Do you taste the lemon! It's hard to compete with grandma, you just do your best and hope for approval! Good job!
When it comes to rice pudding, it IS hard to compete with my mother-in-law. She could probably make it with her eyes closed, she made it so much, and it was always perfect. I think I got close, though. Thanks for the encouragement.
I love your enameled Cast Iron. The size seems perfect, where did you get yours and what size is it? This dish looks absolutely amazing, I've watched this video multiple times and crave it so bad. I have yet to try it, but I am working myself up to it.
Thanks. I get comments on it all the time. It's a 5-quart enameled Dutch oven by Food Network. I bought it at Kohl's a few years ago, but they still carry them. Hope you try this recipe. Let me know if you do.
If you shop at Aldis, sometimes they have one there too. It looks exactly like the one she uses. It is pretty heavy and I love cooking in it!
Can you use some vanilla in it
Yes, of course! About 1 tsp. of vanilla extract would be perfect.
I make it vegan. You don’t need cow milk or chicken eggs to make this recipe. ❤
Very nice channel! Increase your stats = P R O M O S M .
