I tried to make rice pudding and it was terrible. It happened in three distinct and equally disgusting mishaps.
1. I only filled my casserole dish halfway, but it still managed to overflow all over the oven. I don't really blame myself for this one, but in addition to making a huge mess, I think it also through off the proportions of the ingredients.
2. Then I added too much cinnamon so the pudding was brown.
3. You are supposed to add condensed milk right after you cook it, but I forgot to add it until maybe 20 minutes later. I think this caused the milk to not mix in smoothly/properly. Each bowl of pudding was a sticky brown lump with condensed milk plopped uncomfortably on top. The color contrast was disconcerting.
I didn't want to waste the pudding because I'd bought the ingredients and put the effort in. I even had to get a special kind of Italian rice. So, I ended up eating two bowls in one day, once I gave each bowl a good stir. At first it was okay, then I felt sick. I think I may have ruined rice pudding for a while.
