Happy Holidays: Classic Eggnog is Back

Classic Egg nog

(Family Features) - Classic eggnog is pure and simple. Just three main ingredients - eggs, cream and sugar - magically create the quintessential holiday sip of thick creamy custard with puffs of softly beaten egg whites.

For those of us who have lamented the fact that we could no longer safely enjoy homemade eggnog prepared with raw eggs, there's good news. Call it a gift for this holiday season and beyond: pasteurized shell eggs. Safest Choice Pasteurized Shell Eggs enable us to once again partake of all of those favorites that call for raw or lightly cooked eggs, whether it's the yolks or the whites or both, without fear of foodborne illness. Think chocolate mousse, meringues, Caesar salad dressing, French silk pie, mayonnaise from scratch, sunny-side up eggs.
 
The eggs are pasteurized in the shell using a warm water bath. Only water - nothing else added - makes them safe to consume whether over easy, poached or in your favorite hollandaise recipe. A red circle "P" stamped on each egg lets you know they're safe.

So set out the punch bowl and bring back a tradition. This Classic Eggnog base can be prepared up to one day in advance and refrigerated, a great timesaver during this busy season. It's delicious with the addition of rum, brandy or bourbon, or just topped with a sprinkling of ground nutmeg. Flavored spirits such as vanilla-infused vodka, peppermint schnapps or clear crème de cacao can impart unexpected taste twists to this classic, and for a little whimsy, top each serving with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream or dollop of whipped cream.
