Pudding Rice

I used some to make a slow oven cooked rice pudding during lockdown. DH said it tasted no better than Ambrosia.

Oh yum!
I made one this week it was with risotto rice very tasty, sadly had to compensate after cooking as I failed to add any sugar !!

Definately still sell this in Sainsburys, saw it on the shelf above where the tinned rice was.

Its usually just called 'short grain rice', in the way semolina is described as polenta. Very few people make rice pudding these days.

You can get it in sainsburys, asda and tesco. It will either be labelled as pudding rice or short grain rice. I buy it regularly. You cant beat a home made rice pud !!

I usually find it in Tesco or Sainsbury's in small packs.

I’ve tried my local Aldi, Sainsburys, Co-Op and Tesco. Today I bought arborio rice and will try that.
Thank you for all your answers.

Waitrose usually have it in stock, on the bottom of the shelves with the other dry rice (tinned rice is in a different aisle with desserts). It's labelled 'short grain rice', not 'pudding rice', it's the same thing.

Yuk- it reminds me of my school dinners. Nothing would persuade me to eat it now.

Waitrose have it in stock at the moment

Just added it to my order, thank you Daisymae

Comfort food!

I found some in Sainsbury recently - like you I'd been looking for ages

Morrison’s sell the small bags of pudding rice but also in the Ethnic food aisle do a 3kg bag too

I buy it in Morrisons ,in fact its on my order for delivery today

Our shops mostly do have it, but why they don’t put it with other rice I don’t know - it’s usually shelved with tins of Ambrosia, etc. I’ve had to ask before finding it.

I’ve made rice pudding very successfully with arborio (risotto) rice. First did it at a dd’s when there was a lot of milk that needed using up, and plenty of risotto rice in the cupboard.

Our Tesco's have it in the puddings Isle with the tinned rice etc.

Use risotto rice or rice for paella. They are both short grain and no different from pudding rice. I have given up looking for pudding rice and just use one of the above.

My last lot was from Sainsbury’s, but as shysal said, it wasn’t where you would expect it to be, I also had to ask.
Think it was in the baking section.

Bought it from Sainsbury recently.

I had to ask in Asda, and found that it wasn't on the shelf with the other types of rice, but with the tinned rice pudding, custard etc., and on the bottom shelf.
I love rice pudding, especially the skin. I use Mary Berry's recipe, with extra butter!

Waitrose have it in stock at the moment

There should be some around (short grain rice) for puds, although not many people make them now I expect.

Tesco sell it that’s where I get mine.

Have you tried the CoOp

Is it Arborio rice? It looks the same.
