Cut the vanilla pod lengthwise and scrape out the pulp. Bring milk, sugar, 1 pinch of salt, vanilla pod and pulp to the boil. Stir in espresso powder. Add the rice and simmer over low to medium heat for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Turn off the cooker and let the rice pudding swell on the cooker for about 10 minutes. Transfer the finished rice into a bowl, removing the vanilla pod. Let the rice cool down for 30-40 minutes, stirring in between.
Whip 100 g cream until stiff, fold into the lukewarm rice and divide into four glasses. Place in a cool place for at least 30 minutes until serving.
Whip 150 g cream until stiff, pour in vanilla sugar. Pour cream into a piping bag with a large star-shaped spout. Spray 1 thick cream tuff onto each latte macchiato rice pudding. Pour about 2 tablespoons of apple sauce over each cream tuff.
Add the rest of the apple sauce.
