Recipe - Lulis Simplest Rice Pudding (Arroz Con Leche)

4 cup Cold water
One fourth teaspoon Salt
1 cup Longgrain white rice
3 cup Milk
One fourth cup Raisins (optional)
One half cup Sugar
1/8 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
1 One half teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
Heavy cream, for serving
(optional)

1. Bring the water to a boil in a heavy saucepan; add the salt and stir in
the rice with a fork. Cover and simmer over the lowest possible heat,
stirring now and then, until the rice is very tender, about 35 minutes.

2. Add the milk, optional raisins, sugar and optional cinnamon and simmer,
uncovered, stirring frequently, until most of the milk is absorbed, usually
about 20 minutes.

3. Remove from the heat, and stir in the vanilla. Serve with or without
cream poured over the top.
