Teurgoule

A Normandy rice-and-milk dessert flavored with cinnamon.

Say it: tur-GOOL (approximate English pronunciation)

Teurgoule brings rice, milk and cinnamon together in a soft dessert associated with Normandy. It offers a different texture from a slice of cake or a cream-filled pastry. The rice absorbs the milk during cooking, while the spice provides the distinctive flavor. It is a useful choice when you want to explore a lesser-known regional sweet.
