INGREDIENTES :
6 huevos
3/4 de litro de leche semidesnatada
150 gramos de azúcar
1 rama de canela
Media cucharadita de nuez moscada en polvo
6 huevos
3/4 de litro de leche semidesnatada
150 gramos de azúcar
1 rama de canela
Media cucharadita de nuez moscada en polvo
En primer lugar vamos a hervir la leche con la rama de canela. Cuando la leche esté a punto de subir la retiramos del fuego y quitamos la canela. Dejamos enfriar. En un bol batiremos los huevos y añadiremos el azúcar y la leche ya enfriada. Continuamos batiendo con un minipimer hasta que la mezcla espesa ligeramente. Entonces añadimos un poco de nuez moscada e introducimos en la nevera hasta que está bien fría. Se sirve en vasos espolvoreando un poco del resto de la nuez moscada en cada uno de ellos.
Para los que quieren añadir un toque "aristocrático" al Eggnog, bastará con incorporar medio vaso de cognac o brandy. Digo aristocrático porque esta bebida, convenientemente "alcoholizada" era propia de la aristocracia inglesa durante el siglo XVIII.

One of the Christmas traditions in the United States is to consume eggnog In winter time, near the Xmas days, the supermarket shelves are filled with bricks of this popular drink consumed either at its alcoholic version or suitable for all audiences. Although it is possible to make homemade Eggnog , the fact of using raw eggs has caused some 'accidents' related to salmonella that have discouraged further tries . However you can purchase free-salmonella eggs or powder yolks to remain at the safe side.
INGREDIENTS:6 eggs
1.6 pt of semi-skimmed milk
0.33 lb of sugar
1 cinnamon stick
Half a teaspoon of ground nutmeg
First we are going to boil the milk with the cinnamon stick . When the milk is about to raise then remove from heat and remove cinnamon. Let cool . In a bowl beat the eggs and then add the sugar and milk already cooled . Continue whisking with a blender until the mixture thickens slightly. Then add a bit of nutmeg and introduce the mix in the fridge until it is cold . Serve in cups sprinkling a bit of nutmeg at the top.For those who want to add a touch of 'aristocratic' to Eggnog , and obviously for mature people, simply add half a glass of cognac or brandy. I say aristrocatic because this drink , conveniently 'intoxicated' was typical of the English aristocracy in the eighteenth century .
