CLASSIC EGGNOG
Aaron Goldfarb, a liquor writer who was raised Jewish, was not introduced to the joys of eggnog until he married a woman who loved Christmas. Making a batch of homemade eggnog became his self-designated duty at their annual Christmas party in Park Slope, Brooklyn. For the spirits, Mr. Goldfarb prefers Maker's Mark or another bourbon with a heavy wheat content, which lends sweetness. He also cautions against using spiced rum, as he feels the spirits involved already possess enough intrinsic baking-spice qualities. Mr. Goldfarb loves a slightly aged nog; see Tip for his advice.

Steps:
- Separate the egg yolks from the whites. In a stand mixer, beat the whites on high speed until transformed into a meringue-like consistency with soft peaks.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the milk, cream, sugar, bourbon, rum and Cognac or brandy until a smooth texture is achieved. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until combined.
- Transfer eggnog into a large serving bowl. Chill overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
- To serve, ladle a few ounces into a mug or glass and grate fresh nutmeg over the surface. For ideal flavor, mix will keep in the refrigerator up to two weeks, but can last longer.
COOKED EGGNOG
This is a rich and creamy eggnog that is an alternative to traditional eggnog, because the eggs are cooked. When served chilled and topped with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of nutmeg and cinnamon, it is a sure bet that it will be a hit at your next Christmas party.

Steps:
- Place the eggs and sugar into a pan, and whisk until light colored and frothy. Whisk in 2 cups of milk until thoroughly blended. Place the pan over medium heat, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens, and coats the back of a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and allow to stand 5 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining 6 cups of milk, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. Refrigerate at least 2 hours to cool thoroughly before serving.

EGGNOG
Homemade eggnog is simple, a recipe for novices, as long as they can whisk. Where many eggnogs go wrong is that they rely more on cream than on alcohol. It's not a liquid dessert. It's a drink, whose coarse edges are muted with cream and eggs. "The Joy of Cooking" has a recipe that hits all the right points, some of them in excess. Made as is, the drinker is apt to experience a brief moment of jolly followed by blacking out. For my adaptation, I cut some of the cream with milk and cut back on the alcohol just a touch so one could finish a glass while still holding onto it.

Steps:
- In an electric mixer or by hand, whisk together egg yolks and 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar until light, dense, and mixture forms a ribbon trail when whisk is lifted. While whisking, very slowly add 1 cup bourbon. Cover this mixture, and refrigerate for one hour.
- Whisk in remaining bourbon, then beat in cream and milk. Add 1/2 cup more milk if it is too thick. In another bowl, whisk egg whites with a pinch of salt, until fluffy. Slowly add remaining confectioners' sugar while whisking; keep whisking until whites are shiny and hold firm but not stiff peaks. Fold egg whites into egg yolk mixture.
- To serve, ladle eggnog into small cups - demitasse cups would work well - making sure to get some foam on each. Grate a little nutmeg on top of each.

CHEF JOHN'S HOMEMADE EGGNOG
Imagine a luxuriously textured bourbon-spiked custard being sipped through a thin layer of nutmeg-scented meringue. Based on Alton Brown's famous version, this eggnog is vastly superior to the store-bought product.

Steps:
- Place egg yolks in a saucepan. Whisk in sugar until well blended and creamy. Add milk and cream; whisk until blended. Place pan over medium heat; whisk frequently until mixture reaches a temperature of between 170 to 180 degrees F (75 to 80 degrees C) using an instant-read thermometer. Remove from heat. Stir in nutmeg and whiskey.
- Chill pan in cold water until cool. Transfer mixture to a container (a large pitcher is ideal). Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, 2 to 3 hours.
- Place egg whites in a bowl and whisk until soft peaks form. Add sugar and continue whisking until egg whites hold a firmer peak. Whisk egg whites into custard base until thoroughly blended. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
- Whisk eggnog again just before serving and between each pour to ensure even distribution of the egg whites which tend to float to the top. Serve with a dusting of nutmeg.

EGGNOG (JOY OF COOKING) RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- Beat separately until light in color 12 egg yolks Beat in gradually 1 lb. confectioner's sugar Add very slowly, beating constantly 2 c. dark rum, brandy, bourbon, or rye These liquors form the basis of the "nog", and you may choose one variety or mix to taste; I prefer rum. Let mixture stand covered for 1 hour to dispel the "eggy" taste. Add, beating constantly, 2 to 4 cups of liquor (chosen as above; I use rum) 2 quarts whipping cream 1 cup peach brandy, if desired (I've never added it) Refrigerate covered for 3 hours. Beat until stiff but not dry 8 to 12 egg whites Fold egg whites lightly into the other ingredients. Serve sprinkled with fresh nutmeg and cinnamon to taste. Yield is about 1 gallon. This is a very rich, high-cholesterol, high-octane eggnog. If you use 4 cups of liquor in the second part, it will be *very* alcoholic; if you only use 2 cups, it will still be pretty strong.
JOY'S COOKED EGGNOG
I noticed not a lot of egg nogs, and I'm not daring enough to try an uncooked one. This comes from Joy of Cooking, I've made it 2 going on to 3 years running now, and it's the richest I've had. Which means I'm making it every year. The book warns to not double the recipe. It's kind of ponderous but so well worth the effort.

CREAMY COOKED EGGNOG
If you worry about uncooked eggs in Egg Nog, as I do, you might like to try this recipe. I found the original recipe on the American Egg Board website and have made a few changes to suit our tastes. This is the best cooked Egg Nog I have ever tried and made this way, will be free from salmonella bacteria. This recipe can be doubled easily. Cooking time includes "chilling" time. Edited to add: Always remember to use fresh eggs. This eggnog will keep 4 days under refrigeration.

Steps:
- Use a saucepan or stock pot large enough to hold 2 quarts.
- In saucepan, beat together the eggs and sugar until smooth.
- Stir in 2 cups milk.
- Cook over medium low heat, whisking or stirring frequently because as this mixture begins to get hot it will easily scorch to the bottom of the pan if you aren't careful.
- Cook until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon and reaches 160° on a food thermometer.
- Remove from heat.
- Slowly add the 2 cups whipping cream or half& half while whisking together until smooth.
- Add vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg and combine until incorporated.
- At this point, you may taste test (carefully- it will still be very hot) and if it doesn't seem sweet enough for your taste, add extra sugar.
- I use a total of 3/4 cup sugar because we like it sweet.
- You may also add more nutmeg at this point if you like a strong nutmeg flavor.
- Pour into a pitcher or container.
- Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled- several hours or overnight.
- Serve garnished with your choice of toppings: whipped cream, chocolate curls, maraschino cherries, cinnamon sticks or peppermint sticks.
- Brandy, rum, whiskey or flavored liqueur's may be added before serving if desired.
- This recipe makes 6 cups Egg Nog.

UNCLE ANGELO'S EGG NOG
What makes this recipe special is its lightness: twice as much milk as cream, and the white of the egg whipped stiff and folded into the mix, so it was almost like clouds on top of the eggnog.
