My generation had the privilege of having our rice water with the ubiquitous evaporated milk with plenty of sugar which gave rice water a very creamy and rich flavour.
Ghana's rice water is somewhat unique in its preparation. The rice, regardless of which variety is used, is often mushed a little by pressing the grains against the sides of the pot to break them down.
Ingredients
1 cup of rice
8-10 cups of water
Salt to taste
Pinch of nutmeg (optional)
Directions
1Boil the water on high heat
2Add washed rice to the boiling water
3Keep boiling for 20-15 minutes
4Reduce heat to a simmer when rice is tender
5Press rice against the sides of the pot to slightly mush the rice grains
6Add evaporated milk and sugar to taste
7Serve immediately or have it cold
