Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 180 g rice pudding
  • 1 liter soy milk (soy drink)
  • 1 vanilla pod(s)
  • 80 g sugar
  • some syrup (lavender syrup)
  • 12 Lavender (lavender flowers), fresh or dried

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 15 minutes

Combine the rice with soy milk, the split vanilla pod, and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil over low heat. Simmer gently for about 45 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and wait another 15 minutes until the rice has swelled but is still nice and creamy and not too dry. Immediately stir in 7-8 lavender blossoms and let it steep. Caution: The rice will continue to swell as it cools, so don’t overcook it beforehand! Cool the rice completely in the refrigerator. Just before serving, remove the vanilla pod and stir in a little more lavender syrup. Ladle the rice pudding into decorative bowls and serve, garnished with a lavender blossom.
