You've just taken one of my favourite comfort food desserts and bumped it up to a whole new level! Now to just find some Niagara apricots....I know this recipe is going to stay on my mind until I make it!

And are there any Niagara wineries that make kirsch? That would be awesome!

You know, I have no idea! I need to look into that! :-)

Comfort food for sure

Rice pudding is definitely and always comfort food! This just makes it fancy lol

Apricots and rice pudding. Two things I adore. I’ve had no luck finding fresh apricots this season. Do you think reconstituting good dried apricots in the poaching liquid might work as an alternative?

Jamie Schler's avatar

I’ve never thought of that but it would seriously be worth trying!

Domenica Marchetti's avatar

I'm going to have to. It looks so good. Brava!

Oh, I want this, Jamie. What a beautiful recipe. ❤️

John Paul! Thank you, darling! They are really good!

I am wiping the drool from my mouth …

An aside is that I think you left out a word in the sentence “ Divide the cooled (it can be served warm or tepid) evenly between the dessert bowls.”

Jamie Schler's avatar

Oooh, Earl, thanks for that catch! Wow you really read it all! And I always love seeing you here!

My husband loves rice pudding. He'll be done with a medical icky thing (he'll get to ring the bell!!!) on Monday, so this will be a fabulous treat to make for him next week to celebrate.

As per usual, I confess.....I jumped down to the recipe, so now I'll reheat my yummy coffee and read your well researched and always interesting history of this dish.

Now I desperately want a dessert named after me.

Jamie Schler's avatar

You deserve it. Let me think what it could be 🤔

Michael Procopio's avatar

Clearly, it should be something that's not to everyone's taste.

Jamie Schler's avatar

And spicy. Obviously.

Michael Procopio's avatar

Well obvs.
