Add 1 2 cup of raw cane sugar and reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the mixture to simmer, uncovered, for about 20 minutes until it reaches a custardy texture. Stir frequently to prevent sticking, and if the mixture appears dry, you can add a little more milk.Once the rice pudding has reached the desired consistency, remove it from the heat and add 1 teaspoon of rose water and 1 teaspoon of orange blossom water. These fragrant ingredients will infuse the dessert with delightful floral notes. Pour the rice pudding into a large, shallow serving bowl or individual bowls and let it cool. It is best served at room temperature.For a final touch, garnish the rice pudding with slivered pistachios, adding a delightful crunch and a pop of green color.
