✨ What Is Rizskoch?

Rizskoch is a traditional Hungarian baked rice pudding-cake hybrid. It’s airy thanks to whipped egg whites, gently flavored with vanilla and lemon zest, and often served with fruit preserves or powdered sugar on top. Some even enjoy it with a drizzle of chocolate or a dollop of whipped cream.
