This recipe is especially made for my friend Socrates. And for all of you that want to try the Greek dessert ‘rizogalo’ or else the Greek version of rice pudding. ‘Rizogalo’ is a humble yet delicious dessert, made easily with what most people have always in their kitchen; milk, sugar, rice.

For that reason I was completely amazed to see it served (and highly credited) in a restaurant in France taking into account the attention French people pay into their “cuisine”..
