| Cyril K. Collins Eggnog Recipe
Printable version This is my grandfather's eggnog recipe. It is a rich, creamy, and truly delicious version of the holiday drink. I do not know if he concocted it himself or picked it up somewhere. Please note that this eggnog is a potent alcoholic beverage. Please encourage the members of your party to bring a Designated Driver if they plan on drinking. To lower the alcohol in the recipe, use lower proof whiskey and/or rum, or substitute a cup of milk for every cup of alcohol removed. http://256.com/gray/recipes/eggnog/ Ingredients 8 servings 16 servings 24 servings Fresh Eggs (separated into yolks/whites) 4 8 12 Sugar (divided into 2 equal parts) 1/2 cup (1/4c, 1/4c) 1 cup (1/2c, 1/2c) 1 1/2 cups (3/4c, 3/4c) White Rum 1/2 cup 1 cup 1 1/2 cups Milk (Whole or 2%) 1 1/2 cups 3 cups 4 1/2 cups Whiskey 1 1/2 cups 3 cups 4 1/2 cups Heavy/Whipping Cream (divided into 2 equal parts) 1 cup (1/2c, 1/2c) 2 cups (1c, 1c) 3 cups (1 1/2c, 1 1/2c) Ground Nutmeg (strongly recommended) Enough to sprinkle on servings. Consider whole nutmeg nuts and grinder. Eggnog Recipe Instructions You are doing things gently and slowly to preserve the eggnog's fluffiness. A good whisk for the stirring and a high speed mixer for the egg-whites and cream helps this process immensely. Notes on taking this to a party below. Separate eggs into yolks and whites in separate bowls (see below for a how-to). I put the whites into the mixer and the yolks into another bowl. Beat egg-yolks with 1/2 of sugar, set aside. Beat egg-whites until stiff, then mix in other 1/2 of sugar. Poor the yolks into the whites and mix together slowly. Stir in white rum slowly Stir in milk slowly (see below for dairy intolerance) Stir in whiskey slowly Stir in 1/2 of cream slowly Whip rest (1/2) of cream and fold in carefully. Notes on how to fold below. Serve at room temperature by ladling the eggnog into cups and sprinkle nutmeg on the top. Information on nutmeg grinders below. Try to get some of the foam and some of the liquid (if not fully mixed) in each cup. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Also, since this recipe doesn't appear to have the eggs cooked, you can buy pasteurized eggs if you have anyone in your family or friends who is 'at risk' for salmonella (like pregnant people or the elderly) which are safer to use if you don't cook them (same for caesar salad dressing and aioli, etc) |

Vegantoast or maybe CaliforniaToast |
| Alright, hang on. I get yelled at for using Stove Top but nobody questions going to the store for a carton of eggnog? Oh no, if I'm supposed to make stuffing from scratch everybody else is making eggnog from scratch!
That being said, skip the egg and just have the nog! Why ruin good alcohol with all that protein?
P.S. it's 'Freedom' Toast |
