Portuguese Rice Pudding (Arroz Doce)

This Portuguese Ride Pudding recipe is a delicious balance of creamy and sweet! Locally known as arroz doce, it’s a traditional dessert from Portugal that’s excellent served hot or straight from the fridge. Yum!

If you’re in the mood to serve other Portuguese rice dishes before this traditional dessert, tomato rice, and Portuguese chickpeas and rice are brilliant choices.

Now, on to dessert.

They sometimes call this Portuguese Sweet Rice because it is (indeed) rice cooked in milk, with added sugar.
