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 .
