Rose buds Milk Rice Recipe

Today I am very happy to share with you this easy, healthy and yummy recipe: Rose buds rice milk.

Just the perfect comfort food I was looking for lately.

For this recipe I chose to use whole rice from Camargue, in South of France, as since last year, I have started focusing on buying local products more and more. The reason why if that the food has travelled much less, and also because I want to support local projects and businesses that share the same values as mine. Living and eating consciously, for me, it means also that.

I really enjoyed this rice: the grains are beautiful and have an amazing consistency; they don’t get sticky and keep their shape after cooking.

As it’s whole rice, I cooked it in advance as it takes more time to cook and then, I completed the cooking with the milk.

I used dried rose buds as they are among those staple ingredients I always have in my pantry and their delicate, sweet smell reminds me of foreign gardens… I wish to visit one day…

Hope you enjoy the recipe, my dear friends, and if you have any questions, please let me know. I will be delighted to answer them.

INSTRUCTIONS

Pour the milk in the same pot, let it simmer gently, add the rice, the vanilla, the rose buds, taste to see if it is good to add a pinch of salt.

Let cook the rice gently by stirring it from time to time.

Once ready, pour the hot rice in a bowl, add the chopped raw pistachio and the honey.

And… Bon appétit!
