Cardamom Rice Pudding

Rice puddings can be found in almost every culture. In Egypt, milky, chilled roz bil laban is fragrant with cardamom and sometimes a hint of rosewater. (Cardamom is also featured in the country’s corn flour puddings, or mhallabiya, a number of pastries, and hot cups of Arabic coffee.) This pudding, which easily feeds a crowd and can be made a day or two ahead, is infused with whole cardamom pods, and has ground cardamom and cinnamon sprinkled on top to taste.
