This rich stovetop pudding calls for a treasured variety of rice known as Carolina Gold, a hybrid of old African and Asian rice varieties now harvested only in the Carolinas, and sweet Georgia peaches. If you can’t find Carolina Gold rice, sub in Arborio, carnaroli, or another short-grain rice. Though peaches are delicious, the pudding would taste great with any other stone or tropical fruit.
