Celtic Homemade Eggnog Recipes

IRISH EGGNOG

Steps:

• Whisk 1 egg, 1 ounce Irish cream liqueur and 1/4 ounce Irish whiskey in a bowl until smooth. Bring 2 cups whole milk to a boil in a saucepan (do not use a slow cooker-it will overcook the eggs). Pour over the egg mixture, stirring to mix well. Pour into mugs. Sprinkle with nutmeg and garnish with cinnamon sticks.
• If you don't have a slow cooker, keep these drinks warm in a saucepan on the stovetop over low heat.

EGGNOG

Steps:

• In a large bowl, blend the milk, cream, egg yolks, vanilla and whiskey using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually sprinkle in the sugar while continuing to whip until stiff. Fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, and pour into a punch bowl or large pitcher. Serve in mugs or cups garnished with a sprinkle of nutmeg.

HOMEMADE EGGNOG RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat 3 cups (720 ml) of milk in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until it is steaming, 5-6 minutes (do not allow it to come to a boil.)
• While the milk is warming, whisk together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl until pale yellow in color, 1-2 minutes.
• Once the milk has begun to steam, slowly pour half into the egg mixture while continuously whisking so the eggs don't scramble. Once combined, slowly pour the egg and milk mixture back into the saucepan. 4. Keep warm over medium-low heat, stirring continuously for 15-20 minutes, until the mixture has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
• Prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. Place a medium bowl in the ice bath and set a fine-mesh sieve on top. Pour the egg mixture through the sieve to remove any unwanted egg bits.
• Remove the sieve and add the remaining cup of milk and heavy cream, and stir to combine. Let cool for 20 minutes, stirring every 5. Add the rum, if desired, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. The eggnog will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Serve with freshly grated nutmeg on top.
• Enjoy!

CELTIC HOMEMADE EGGNOG

Steps:

• Separate eggs. Set egg whites in a metal bowl and place in the refrigerator.
• In a small mixing bowl, beat egg yolks until blended. Gradually add 3 tablespoons of sugar, beating at high speed until thick and lemon-coloured. Stir in the milk, rum or brandy, vanilla, and salt. Place egg yolk mixture in refrigerator to chill thoroughly, about 2 hours.
• Whip the cream. Remove the egg whites from the refrigerator and beat until soft peaks form (if using same beaters, make sure they are thoroughly washed). Add remaining sugar, beating the mixture into stiff peaks. Fold yolk mixture and whipped cream into egg whites. Mix in cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin pie mix to taste.
• Note: Make sure you put the eggnog in a container you can shake, as it tends to settle.
