Thai Sticky Black Rice Pudding
This traditional Thai dessert features black rice cooked until tender and sticky. It is simmered with water, salt, coconut milk, and sugar to create a uniquely rich and creamy pudding. The process involves two stages of cooking to achieve the perfect consistency. It yields a wonderfully fragrant and satisfying sweet dish, ideal for serving after a meal. This recipe makes enough for four people and takes about 85 minutes from start to finish.
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups water
- 1 cup black rice
- 0.75 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 0.5 cup white sugar
Method
- Place the water, black rice, and salt into a saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat, cover the pan, and allow it to simmer for 40 minutes.
