Which holiday drink fit» boih the
festive season and the pocketbook?
The host or hostess at home as
well as those in well-known restaur
ants may attempt to prepare some
thing different— but the perennial
favorite at Holiday time is eggnog.
The association between eggnog
and the holidays dates back to long
ago. The word “ eggnog" probably
came from an old English term,
"nog g in ,” meaning a small cup a
similar drink was served in centuries
ago. O f the many ways to prepare
eggnog,
a special
made-from-
scratch recipe may be the answer for
those looking for an economical,
holiday refreshment.
•Eggnog eliminates the expense
of stocking a bar. Eggnog and a
fruit-based punch make a complete
and festive party fare, and the sav
ings are considerable when com
pared to the cost o f stocking a bar
• I t ’s economical in other ways,
too. During the past 27 years, the
cost o f a dozen eggs has risen by
only 18 cents.
•T h e eggnog is no time-waster,
either. It takes just a few minutes to
prepare this delicious homemade
treat.
•Eggnog is a drink and dessert in
one. The sweet creamy drink usually
conquers even the serious sweet
tooth and satisfies the need for des
sert or additional calories.
•There are no leftovers to worry
about with eggnog. Transform any
unused eggnog into a sumptuous
eggnog pie. The following recipe
shows how. In fact, you may just
want to make sure you’ ll have some
extra to transform into this easy and
elegant dessert.
For those who are still hesitant
about
preparing
eggnog
from
scratch, remember that egg yolks
and whites are easiest to separate
when they arc cold, so It’s best to
separate them right out of the refrig
erator. HAwever, egg whites should
remain at room temperature for half
an hour or so before whipping, and
they should be whipped in a non
plastic
bowl.
Ultra-pasteurized
heavy whipping cream is more d iffi
cult to whip so choose non-ultra-
pasteurized whipping cream, as long
as you don’ t plan on storing it for
more than one week. Keep in mind
that a small bowl is best for whip
ping cream because it allows the
beaters or whisks to incorporate
more air.
I f a punch bowl o f from-scratch
eggnog is too much, though, one or
two can still partake in the festivi
ties by following the “ Easy Banana
Nog” recipe.
