Jersey Jan's Rice Pudding (T&T)

Ingredients

• 1 cup rice (uncooked)
• 2 quarts whole milk
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 pint whole milk*
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Mix together rice, 2 quarts whole milk, sugar and salt and bring to a boil. Lower heat and boil about 50 minutes until rice is cooked. Stir regularly.
2. Add together the 1 pint whole milk, eggs and vanilla extract. Beat well and add very slowly to rice mixture to thicken. Bring to a boil and take off the heat. You can add some yellow food coloring if you want to.
3. Transfer pudding to a 3 quart dish, sprinkle with cinnamon and cover with clear wrap and refrigerate until cold.

Notes

* To make it creamier and thicker, I use Half-and-Half or heavy cream.
