I made homemade egg nog for the 1st time today...
My family really likes it :)
Homemade Egg Nog
6 farm fresh eggs at room temperature and separated
3/4 cup sugar (for the yolks)
6 TBS sugar (for the whites)
1 tsp vanilla extract (one of these days I'm gonna have my own bottle of homemade)
a few dashes of nutmeg (or freshly grated)
1 cup of cream
4 cups of raw goat milk
Started with the egg whites..beating them to soft peaks. Then gradually adding 1 TBS sugar at a time until all 6 TBS have been added and stiff peaks form. Put in a bowl to the side. In a large bowl beat egg yolks until lighter in color. Gradually add 1/3 cup of sugar at a time and beat until dissolves..adding more sugar slowly until you've added the 3/4 cup of sugar. Add the milk, cream, nutmeg and vanilla to the egg yolk mixture. Stir to combine. Whisk egg whites into milk mixture. Chill before serving.
* I got this recipe from Frizzled Farm fb page... check it out.
** This recipe is RAW..nothing was pasteurized but you could easily do that if you wanted to.

That looks so good. I'm glad you posted the recipe because I can't find the one I had.
Looks fantastic!
Sounds wonderfully rich and creamy! Be sure to post when you make your own extract. I would love to hear how.
