Eggnog #01
INGREDIENTS:
3 Eggs; slightly beaten
1/2 c Sugar
1/4 ts Salt
3 c Milk
1 c Half-and-half
1/2 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 ts Imitation rum flavoring
Nutmeg; as desired
3 Eggs; slightly beaten
1/2 c Sugar
1/4 ts Salt
3 c Milk
1 c Half-and-half
1/2 ts Vanilla
1 1/2 ts Imitation rum flavoring
Nutmeg; as desired
Mix beaten eggs with sugar and salt in the top of a double boiler. Add milk and half-and-half. Cook over boiling water, stirring constantly, just until mixture coats spoon, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cool. Add vanilla and rum flavoring. Chill.
Immediately before serving, strain eggnog. Beat with a rotary beater until frothy. Pour into chilled cups. Sprinkle each serving with nutmeg, as desired.
NOTE: For this recipe, use only clean eggs, with no cracks in shells.
[Additional note from Karen: Don't serve this to ANYONE with a compromised or underdeveloped immune system! This would include children, the elderly, the infirm, and anyone else who can't afford to risk salmonella poisoning. If in doubt, consult your own physician.]
