Earl grey tea infused rice cooked in milk until creamy. This earl grey rice pudding is simple to make and the perfect dessert.
Ingredients
  • 2⅓ cup water
  • 4 bags earl grey tea
  • ⅔ cup uncooked short grain rice
  • 1½ cup whole milk
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Granulated sugar, to taste if desired
  • Drizzle of almond milk, condensed milk, coconut milk, if desired
Directions:
  1. In a small pot, heat water and steep earl grey tea for several minutes. Remove the earl grey tea bags and set the tea aside for now.
  2. In a medium sized pot, combine the rice and earl grey tea over medium heat until simmering. Lower the heat to medium low and cook until the rice is almost done cooking, about 20 minutes. Add milk, granulated sugar, and salt, and continue to cook for another 20 minutes or so. If the pudding looks too thick or dry, add more milk until desired consistency.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the rest of the milk and the egg until combined. Add a fourth cup of the hot rice to the bwol and whisk until combined. The hot rice tempers the egg so that it doesn’t cook when added to the pot.
  4. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the pot and continue to cook until it reaches the desired consistency. Add more sugar and vanilla extract if desired.
  5. Serve this earl grey rice pudding warm or cold. Drizzle more milk on top if desired.
