Step 1

To remove the sodium, soak the cheese in water for 1-3 hours or over night, renewing the water a few times- if using Belgioioso cheese, there is no need to soak!

Step 2

In a pot add washed short or medium grain rice. Cover with 6 cups of water. Bring water to a boil for about 4 minutes then simmer for 30 minutes covered stirring occasionally until all the water has been soaked by the rice.

Step 3

drain any remaining water from the rice then blend the rice using an immersion blender until rice becomes creamy⁣

Step 4

add the drained cheese and sugar into the pot of rice. Place on medium heat and stir consistently until all ingredients are well combined and content is stretchy

Step 5

add in the rosewater and blossom water and continue mixing to combine⁣ on medium heat

Step 6

pour the cheese filling into a 9x13 pyrex. Allow it to cool for about 5-10 minutes then add the ashta (sweet cream) layer on top. Garnish with ground pistachio. Allow to cool for 20 minutes before placing in the fridge for 4 hours
