Kozy Shack RICE PUDDING

Bread delivery man Vincent Gruppuso was so fond of the rice pudding served at Cozy Shack Deli in Brooklyn, New York, that he bought the recipe and opened a pudding factory. Today Kozy Shack makes the top-selling rice pudding in the U.S.

Step 1

Whisk together the milk, sugar, egg, and salt in a large (3-quart) saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture begins to steam (which should be at around 160 degrees F), add the rice and reduce the heat to medium/low. Let the mixture reach a very low simmer, but don’t let it boil (it should be around 190 degrees F).

Step 2

Cook for 45 to 50 minutes, stirring often, until the pudding thickens and reduces to around 2½ cups.

Step 3

Turn off the heat, add the vanilla, and let the pudding sit for 10 minutes. Transfer it to a covered container and chill it for at least 2 hours before eating. The pudding will thicken more when completely chilled.
