Ingredients:
Eggnog
600mlwhole milkor failing that, semi-skimmed
55glight brown sugarquantity to dose according to your taste
4 egg yolks
2big pinches of cinnamon
2big pinches of nutmeg
1pinch of salt
0,25 tspnatural vanilla extract
Whipped cream (option)
200mlwhole cream 30% mg
Cinnamon for the decor
Instructions:
Eggnog
In a saucepan, heat the milk with the cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Stop just before boiling.
In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the brown sugar until the mixture becomes clear and frothy.
Add a spoonful of hot milk to the yolks while whisking to avoid "cooking" the yolks. Then pour the yolks / sugar mixture into the saucepan.
Return to heat for a few minutes over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon. The mixture should thicken slightly, it will finish thickening in the fridge afterwards.
Off the heat, pass the mixture through a sieve to remove any pieces of cooked egg yolk, if there are any.
Add the vanilla then let cool before placing in a container (with spout it is more practical). Cover with cling film and refrigerate until the drink is very cold.
Pour the contents into glasses and sprinkle with cinnamon (or top with whipped cream below).
Whipped cream
Whip the whipping cream in the bowl of the food processor or with a mixer. Garnish a pastry bag then place a nice dose of whipped cream on each drink. Sprinkle with cinnamon and enjoy.
Notes:
This eggnog will keep in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days, in a well-sealed container.
