Here's another great recipe to make while listening to WFMT on New Year's Eve
Happy New Year -- and if you've never made homemade eggnog, here's the best recipe I have ever found:
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/eggnog-recipe2/index.html -- it's Alton Brown's recipe -- I've made it twice and it's simply fantastic. Who knew how easy it actually is to make? All you need is an electric mixer. No cooking.
It's very flexible -- you can substitute 2% milk for whole milk to make it a bit skinnier, or use less heavy cream and more milk. You can also leave out the bourbon and include vanilla instead. The key is whipping the eggs. Below is a website that tells you everything you need to know about whipping eggwhites -- and just before that is a link to a video that explains egg white whipping step by step.
If you are one of those people who say, "Oh, I don't know how to cook!" -- this will change everything for you.
