Rice Pudding
In coastal Georgia, rice is the fundamental starch; and it is not uncommon to make it in large quantities so that you have not only enough for red rice to accompany your seafood gumbo, but several cups left over to make a batch of this elementary and always excellent rice pudding. To transform it from comfort food into a luxury dessert, serve the warm pudding in a bowl topped with heavy cream and a few fresh berries.
