  • Riz au Lait with Caramel Sauce

    by Audrey

    Riz au Lait with Caramel Sauce is what we call a recette de grand–mère, aka a “grandmother’s recipe”. Practically every French grandmother knows their way with pantry staples (rice, milk, sugar and vanilla) to make this creamy rice pudding topped with caramel sauce. This is a comforting and thrifty dessert that always pleases both kids and adults. 

  • Known as “riz au lait”, the typical French rice pudding is made with the simplest of pantry ingredients: rice, sugar and a lot of milk, simmered or baked together until creamy. No eggs, no cornstarch, no gelatin. The starch of the rice does all the work and thickens the mixture until it’s amazingly rich. It is one of the ultimate French comfort foods, and I never tire of making and eating it.
