Recipe
Danish rice pudding, made with rice, whipped cream, and a hidden almond, is traditionally called "Risalamande." It's a beloved dessert in Denmark, particularly during the Christmas season. The dish is a creamy, sweet rice pudding mixed with whipped cream, sugar, and vanilla, often served with a warm cherry sauce on top.
The unique and fun aspect of Risalamande is the single whole almond hidden in the pudding. According to tradition, the person who finds the almond in their serving is awarded a small prize or is said to have good luck. This tradition makes Risalamande not just a dessert but also a playful part of Danish Christmas celebrations.
