**Experimenting with Chamomile & Apricot Rice Pudding**

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a unique creation that was inspired by a dream I had last night. In my dream, I was walking through a fragrant chamomile field and stumbled upon a tree filled with ripe apricots. That’s when I knew I had to combine these two beautiful flavors into a comforting and creamy dessert. So, without further ado, let’s dive into my Chamomile & Apricot Rice Pudding recipe!

**Ingredients**

– 1 cup Arborio rice
– 3 cups almond milk
– 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
– 1/4 cup honey
– 2 chamomile tea bags
– 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
– Pinch of salt

**Kitchen Tools**

  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon
  • medium mixing bowl
  • mesh strainer

**Preparation**

In a saucepan, combine the almond milk and chamomile tea bags and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Let it steep for 10 minutes, allowing the milk to be infused with the delicate chamomile flavor. Remove the tea bags and discard them.

Add the Arborio rice, dried apricots, honey, cinnamon, and salt to the chamomile-infused milk. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 30-35 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Once the rice is cooked and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency, remove the saucepan from the heat. Let the rice pudding cool slightly before transferring it to a medium mixing bowl. Allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Using a mesh strainer, strain out any solid pieces of apricot from the pudding for a smooth texture. Serve the Chamomile & Apricot Rice Pudding chilled, garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top for an extra touch of warmth.

**Tips**

For a fun twist, try adding a handful of toasted almond slices to the rice pudding for a crunchy contrast to the creamy texture.
