The selection for this week was Arborio Rice Pudding. Before making it, I was pretty sure that I didn't like rice pudding. But, I cut the recipe in half and decided to give it a go anyway. Hey, that's what TWD is about, right? Making me come out of my shell and make things that I normally wouldn't.
Well.... as I expected, I do not like rice pudding. But, at least it was a recipe that didn't waste much. I only had to use 1/4 cup of rice and a little over a cup of milk. No harm, no foul.
You can get the recipe at Les Gourmandises d'Isa (thanks for hosting this week!). If you like rice pudding, check out the blogroll. I'm sure that the many talented TWDers came up with some great pudding!
I couldn't get myself to try it. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteAt least you tried it!
ReplyDeleteGotta love the half-recipe option - I've resorted to it too! Sorry you didn't love it, but hey, you never know until you try, right?

ReplyDeleteYep...at least you tried it. It wasn't bad, but it's definitely not something that I want to waste my calories on!
ReplyDeleteI do not like rice pudding either, but hey, at least we tried! :)
ReplyDeleteI made a half recipe too - I actually like rice pudding, but mine totally flopped. Oh well. On to the chocolate covered cheesecake bites!!
ReplyDeleteYa it was not the greatest..but Im glad I made it.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a rice pudding fan either- at least yours looks nice- mine was like rice soup! I must have made a fatal error along the way!
ReplyDeleteGood for you for giving it a whirl!
ReplyDeleteI love that you tried it too. Awesome. Have to admit it tasted so much better after the overnight in the frig. You were so smart to portion the recipe. Very resourceful. Thanks so much for stopping by and we'll see ya next week.
