my mom where this recipe originated but she doesn&#8217;t really know. \u00a0Her mom made it when she was young, and I plan to make it for my kids&#8230;whenever they choose arrive.<\/p>\n<p>My mom grew up in Richvale, California. \u00a0Her dad, better known as Gramps, is a rice grower in Northern California, and so they ate a lot of rice growing up. \u00a0My mom met my dad in college and he brought her to the great state of Texas. \u00a0Thanks to my sweet Californian mother, I don&#8217;t have too much of a Texas accent, and I ate of lot of perfectly cooked rice as a kid.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This rice pudding is best made with a medium grain rice. \u00a0Most of what I found in the grocery store was long grain white rice. \u00a0I bought a short grain sushi rice for the pudding. \u00a0I was worried after mom said, &#8220;It may contain too much gluten and get too sticky.&#8221; \u00a0But that&#8217;s the rice I had, so that&#8217;s the rice I used. \u00a0It ended up being thicker than my mom&#8217;s pudding, but very delicious.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to wait at least 20 minutes before adding the vanilla. \u00a0You can eat this pudding warm, but I like it chilled. \u00a0If your pudding is too thick when you remove it from the oven you can stir in a bit more milk.<\/p>\n<h3>Rice Pudding<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"
