eggnog
Also known as: Lait de poule, sans alcool
Chilled cooked eggnog of eggs, milk and cream with vanilla and fresh nutmeg.
About eggnog
Eggnog is a rich egg-and-dairy drink associated with the North American winter holiday season. This profile follows Food Network Kitchen's cooked, alcohol-free branch with milk, cream, vanilla and nutmeg.
Eggs, milk and cream create a sweet custard flavour and rounded dairy richness. Vanilla softens the egg notes while freshly grated nutmeg adds a warm, fragrant spice finish.
The drink is ivory-coloured, smooth and thicker than milk but still pourable. Whipped cream gives it a light froth, and fine brown nutmeg specks sit across the surface.
