next day, drain the rice, wash until the water is clear, add 1 qt whole milk, 4 tblsp honey, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1 pinch of cinnamon powder, bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until rice is very soft; you might have to add more milk if the heat is too high or the rice absorbs too much milk during simmering; when the rice is soft, transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature
