I've made this recipe twice within a two week period. The flavor was very good for a lightened up stove top type rice pudding. I would certainly make it a third time, but would use the lessons I learned by making it twice already. Here are some observations/suggestions from my experience making this recipe: The first time I made it, I used freshly cooked hot Jasmine rice. The Jasmine rice gave the finished pudding a special lovely flavor, but the cooked Jasmine rice was a bit too soft. The rice seemed to thicken the pudding too fast and too much. After the pudding was refrigerated, the rice sort of lost its shape and dissolved into the pudding. The refrigerated pudding was not pudding-like, but more like a hard custard. The second time I made the recipe, I used cold refrigerated cooked rice which was rice that was not as cooked as the Jasmine rice I used the first time I made the recipe. This, along with not thickening the pudding during the cooking quite as much (cooked pudding mix fewer minutes and on lower heat than the recipe suggests) made for a perfect texture with rice that held up. Yes, I cooked the pudding on low simmer instead of medium heat. I cooked it until it was just barely pudding thickness both during the first cooking phase, and the second one with the remaining milk and egg. When I removed it from the heat at the end, it was like a slightly runny rice pudding, but as it cooled, it thickened. It was perfectly thick (to my taste) when it was still a little warm. After refrigerating, it was even slightly thicker, but still where I wanted it. My refrigerated pudding was thick enough that I could literally turn the bowl upside down and not have the pudding fall out. But when I dug into it with a spoon, it was fine. As said, the rice held up the second time. The rice I used the second time was a leftover rice from a Japanese restaurant. A plain type white rice.
