Can you use long grain or other types of rice? and...can you double or triple this reicpe w/o a problem? You make it look so easy, I cannot wait to try it! Thank you!

@MotoXwife - Great question! You can definitely use different kinds of rice, but the consistency and chewiness of the rice grains will vary along with the cooking times being slightly different. As for doubling or tripling the recipe, you can definitely do that, just make sure you have a big enough pot and to make sure to stir often! I hope that helps!

You didn't pre wash the rice? This looks really good! I'm definitely going to try this out :)

@stephaniedayrit - That's a great question! Washing your rice was more common back in the day, but now I think that the consensus on washing your rice is more of personal preference. Some say that washing your rice will help it be less gummy and starchy while others say it is a waste of time and water. In all honesty, sometimes I wash my rice and sometimes I don't. In this recipe for rice pudding, I don't mind if there is extra starch, so I simply do not wash the rice. I hope that helps!

@CookingForYouAndMe Thanks! That did help. I'm just so used to washing my rice no matter what
