Add 3 cups of tiger nuts to a bowl and wash them thoroughly.

Fill the bowl with extra water and set it aside.

In another bowl, add 1 cup of rice and cover it with water.

Cover both bowls with plastic wrap and let them sit overnight.

After 24 hours, wash the tiger nuts and rice under running water.

Blend the washed tiger nuts and rice with almost 1 liter of water until smooth.

Strain the blended mixture using a cheesecloth to extract the milk.

Pour the strained tiger nut mixture into a pot and stir continuously over medium heat to prevent lumps.

After about 10 minutes, add a pinch of salt and continue stirring until it thickens, about 15 minutes total.

In a separate pot, melt some unrefined sugar on low heat until it reaches the hard ball stage.

Add the melted sugar to the pudding while stirring to avoid lumps.

Add drops of vanilla extract and stir for another minute or two.

Serve by pouring the milk into a bowl or cup and adding the pudding, or vice versa.
