Instructions

Step 1

In a large saucepan, combine the coconut milk and coconut cream. Split the vanilla bean and scrape out the seeds, add vanilla seeds and scraped pod to the coconut mixture. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 2

Add to the coconut mixture the rice, raw cane sugar, and salt. Stir. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook with the saucepan uncovered until the rice is very tender. Remove from heat and spoon the rice pudding into serving bowls. Serve warm or cold. Before serving, pour turbinado sugar over the rice pudding and carefully brulée until sugar melts and caramelizes.

Chef's Tip

You can skip the brulée step and instead top the rice pudding with toasted coconut or fresh fruits.

The story of the sugar you love today began over a century ago.

In 1850, before the 20th Century even began, the Fanjul family milled their first sugarcane. Little did they know at the time that the same passion that drove them to craft that first batch of sugar would eventually grow into all that Florida Crystals has become today. We remain committed to sustainability, dedicated to doing things right and proud to provide the highest quality sugar from our family to yours.
