Ingredients

1 cup sugar
4 egg whites
1/3 cup water
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
4 cups skim milk
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 to 1 cup brandy or rum
nutmeg

Directions

Combine sugar, egg whites, water and cream of tartar in a large non-aluminum metal bowl: whisk to blend.

Set bowl over a pan of simmering water, taking care the the bowl does not touch the water.

Beat with an electric mixer on medium about 10 minutes, until mixture registers 140F/60C on a candy thermometer and is very thick and fluffy.

Continue to beat 3 or more minutes: remove from heat and beat until mixture has cooled slightly.

Pour milk and vanilla into another large bowl.

Add egg white mixture and brandy or rum; combine gently with a whisk.

Serve chilled and dusted with nutmeg.

Comments

Eggnog will separate when standing, but is easily recombined by whisking.
