Rice Milk

Be sure to use brown rice for the greatest health benefits. Rice milk has the most neutral flavor of the alternative milks that we provide in this recipe book, so if you are looking for a liquid that has more flavor than water and a bit more body, choose rice milk.

Lightened Rice Pudding

The great thing about this dessert is that it can be served warm out of the cooking pot or chilled. Chilled rice pudding does set up and has a different consistency than when served warm. If not serving immediately, stir some extra coconut milk or water into the rice pudding to make it creamier.
