Re: Homemade eggnog recipe?

[Guest guest]

Do you own " Nourishing Traditions " by Sally Fallon, President of the

Weston A. Price Foundation? It's a great book with lots and lots of

recipes. I think there is an eggnog recipe in there somewhere,

although I am not sure because I have misplaced my copy. If you don't

have it then tell me so that I can tell you some more reasons to buy

it...

I do have it. I looked it up and didn't find anything. I will look

again and make sure I didn't miss it.

Here is an 1879 recipe:

To each egg one tablespoonful of sugar, one wine-glassful of milk, and one

wine-glassful of liquor. The sugar and yolks to be well beaten together,

and the whites (well beaten) added by degrees. To twelve eggs, put eight

glassfuls of brandy and four of wine. Put the liquor in the yolks and

sugar, stirring all the time: then add the whites, and lastly the milk.

Here is from the Joy of Cooking:

2 cups chilled milk

2 eggs

2T sugar or honey

1/2 t vanilla or grated orange or lemon rind

cracked ice

Shake together, top with nutmeg.

If you mean the kind they sell at the stores though, that type is usually

made from a custard -- mix some egg yolks and cream (or milk) and sugar and

boil til it gets thick: then add milk to desired thinness. The spices are

generally nutmeg and some cinnamon, I think. If you want one that tastes

JUST like at the stores (but is likely not as good for you), then buy some

" eggnog flavor " concentrate and add a few drops and some sweetener to a

glass of milk or cream.

I just did a search for eggnog and the only thing that came up was

this recent thread on eggnog. Do you remember the name of the thread

that the eggnog recipes were given?

Never mind. I found it. The thread had the word egg nog instead of

eggnog.
