Photo: Eggnog Recipe
From the Great Big Food Show
Ingredients
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 pint whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/4 ounces bourbon
- 1 1/4 ounces dark rum
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 4 egg whites
Directions
In the bowl of a stand mixer beat together the egg yolks and 1/3 cup sugar until the yolks lighten in color and the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the milk, cream, bourbon, rum, and nutmeg and stir to combine.
Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat to soft peaks. With the mixer still running gradually add the 1 tablespoon of sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the mixture. Chill and serve.
* Raw Egg Warning
Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly cooked eggs due to the slight risk of salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly refrigerated, clean grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served, use shell eggs that have been treated to destroy salmonella, by pasteurization or another approved method.

I never liked eggnog because all I've ever had were store bought. But after seeing this "uncooked" eggnog on GOOD EATS, I just had to try it. It is sooo delicious!!! And I've made it without alcohol too and it tastes just as great AND its quick and easy.

I really want to make this for my family party but there's going to be kids there too. Can I leave the bourbon out and still have it be okay?

This was so easy and such a hit at our Christmas gathering. Even my 88 yr old grandmother had two helpings!! This is now going to be a tradition in our family!
