Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups of 1% milk
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup of sugar
  • 1 tsp of cornstarch
  • sticks of cinnamon
  • freshly grated nutmeg – for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2-1/2 cups milk in a medium saucepan.
  • Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds; add the seeds and pod to the saucepan and simmer over medium heat.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar and cornstarch until it turns light yellow.
  • Temper the eggs by gradually pouring the hot milk mixture, about 1 cup at a time, into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
  • Pour the mixture back into the pan.
  • Place over medium heat and stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the eggnog begins to thicken, about 6-7 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the remaining 1/2 cup milk to stop the cooking.
  • Remove the vanilla pod, let it cool and transfer to a pitcher, chill until ready to serve.
