Rice Pudding

Glenn: Whether you eat it plain, like the recipe below -- served warm and bursting with cinnamon aroma and flavor...

Jorge: ...or you pack your rice pudding with juicy raisins, arroz con leche is the perfect ending to any Cuban meal.

Glenn: It is a true Cuban comfort food.

Add milk, salt, vanilla extract, and sugar to rice and cook over low heat, uncovered, stirring occasionally until thick, about one hour.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve.
