    My daughter made this for my birthday dinner last night, and it was delicious! The creamy texture and subtle orange and rum flavors were a perfect finish to the meal. I will be making it soon, as I want to try it warm.

    This was delicious, I did not add the rum, instead added dried craisins and topped with sliced toasted almonds.

    This rice pudding is pretty amazing. I didn't use rum or the orange zest/segments, but instead I used 2 teaspoons of orange flower water. Everything else I followed exactly. AMAZING! I topped my bowl with a dash of cinnamon and sprinkled black currants on top. My new fave dessert!

    Giada, you are my favorite Food Network personality! This rice pudding was delicious. I actually tried Giada's chocolate rice pudding recipe without much success, but this one was delicious. I halved the recipe and with the exception of using regular rum instead of dark, followed the recipe to a T, including the cooking times, and it came out perfectly. I liked it served both warm and cold-maybe warm just a bit better though! The texture was custardy and creamy, the sweetness was perfect, and the orange and rum really helped the vanilla stand out. Yum!

    I keep coming back to this recipe over and over through the years. Today I tried making it with coconut milk instead of whole milk - I wanted to make a vegan version. De-Lish! I highly recommend trying it (I used the light kind, and it still worked great.

    I made the recipe with one change. I substituted one cup of the whole milk with heavy whipping cream. It was really creamy and perfect. For people afraid of the recipe calling for too much liquid, I had no issue at all. Make sure that you are using the type of rice the recipe calls for. Short grain rices produce more starch which thickens up the liquid. It will be fine. For people that had issues with the rice cooking, make sure you are not using anything less than whole milk. 1% and 2% will not properly cook the rice. Other cooking issues would be improper heat control. If you have the heat too high, your liquid will evaporate before it is done leaving you a dry rice. The lower/slower you cook it, the better. These things take time and improper cooking would be from trying to rush it. The taste was excellent and recommend the recipe.

    Did anyone had a issue with the amount of liquid (milk to the 3/4 cup or Rice? The amount of liquid seems to me it may be too much for the little rice (and how many servings did you get if you followed this recipe? Thank you in advance for your replies.

    I was looking for a simple easy rice pudding recipe. I've tried DOZENS...but this was the best ever! I left out the rum and orange flavors because i wanted PLAIN rice pudding. I used arborio rice. It looked too runny when it was finished cooking but i put it in the fridge and when I checked it about 8 hours later it was a PERFECT texure. The vanilla flavor was wonderful...the rice was tender but firm. It was by far the best I've ever made...and couldn't be easier.
    I will make this forever...thank you Giada!!
