Low FOMAP black rice pudding
When I posted a picture of this recipe on Instagram, I got a few comments that said: ohh Karlijn, what is this? It looks like a brownie! Unfortunately, I have to disappoint you because this isn’t a brownie, it is a black rice pudding.
BUT there is cacao in it and because of that it tastes very chocolatey so, therefore, you could say it is a black rice pudding that tastes like a brownie. That’s a good compromise, isn’t it?
I bought black rice during a visit at Amazing Oriental (a large Asian supermarket). I thought it looked fascinating, so I brought it home. If you boil black rice the water turns pitch black.
Super creepy, haha. The flavour of black rice isn’t different from white rice, it reminds me a bit of brown rice.
When you use black rice for your rice pudding, your rice pudding will, therefore, get a bit more of a bite than when you use white rice. You can also use white rice instead of black rice in this recipe.
A perfect breakfast on a cold autumn morning!
