Another in A long line of FAIL recipes by Chef John so once again nice trickery with the camera. it tastes awful don't make it you will be sorry if you try!!!!
Hi Chef John! I just made this recipe tonight and it came out wonderfully. I'm a recovering alcoholic, so I left out the whiskey, but I did add a 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract for the missing flavor notes. This is the first recipe of cooked eggnog that's worked out for me as an adult, so thanks for the video and recipe!
Hi ! Sorry if this seems too forward and not recipe related, I hope you don't mind me asking. I'm trying to help my sister begin her recovery shes been an alcoholic for about 20 years she says she wants help but refuses to go to AA saying he reform schedule makes it impossible. Do you have any Advice?
@@AmeeraG242 Hope your sister is doing well. Help your sister find something she wants to live for (friends, children, family e.g.). Try find her a hobby she enjoys, perhaps enrol at college or uni. Educate her on the dangers of excessive alcohol intake. One of the most important things to do is keep her away from friends who drink, get her out of that social circle (if she was in one). Is she drinking because of an underlying mental health condition or something similar? In other words is she self medicating. Explain to her that although it may be a quick fix, the issue will become worse over time. My friend was drinking heavily because of PTSD and social anxiety that came from it. If there is an issue get her to the doctor. Exercise is awesome if that’s possible. Get her to visualise herself free from drink and all the potential that may hold for her. Tell her you love her and believe in her. X
Hi Emmett, just came across your comment in my search for eggnog recipes. I hope all is well with you. It takes great strength to give up anything addictive like alcohol. ❤
i cannot believe it myself, i followed the instructions to the letter and dayum that is the best eggnog i ever tasted, and yes i added Jim Beam Bourbon
I made this yesterday and it is absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe word for word. At first it tasted way too sweet. I was going to throw it all out. But wait! You have to mix in the egg whites and refrigerate as the video says. The egg whites balance out the sugar sweetness. I also added 6 TBS of bourbon which also balances out the sweetness. The resulting taste is spot on.
This is one of those recipes that bring a lot of people that aren't familiar with Chef John, that's why half the comments are about his voice and inflection! Have a great day
Made this recipe and honestly, it’s better than store bought, which I wasn’t really expecting. I went with 1 1/2 cups 2% milk, and 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream because we don’t keep whole milk in the house. Turned out great.
I'm from Britain and I've never had eggnog before so I thought I'd give it a try this year. Looked for a recipe on your RUclips yesterday and you post one today
+Brad b, your post interested me because eggnog came to America from Britain (I'm sure some such egg-milk-alkie combination was common elsewhere). Anyway, it is/was known in Britain as noggin or egg flip, often consumed at breakfast. In the old country, it might have been made with sherry, wine or brandy, but those spirits were taxed in American, hence the switch to bourbon and/or rum.
+Christine King I think they sell it here around Christmas, I don't think it's a common drink, something more popular is mult wine(not sure how it's spelt) and it's basically Christmas in red wine, still I imagine eggnog is much better than it. Oh and tea is pretty popular here as well
+Brad b, it's mulled wine, usually red wine with spices. Except in Scandinavia where--please forgive me, I get ridiculous about traditional foodways. And, British tea service is beyond par. Happy Christmas!
I grew up as an expat Brit among expat Americans, and one of my fondest memories of things American is eggnog at Christmas. But I remember it being served hot, when it was cold outside.. Did I get the wrong drink?
Chef John with the cayenne, John Townsend with the nutmeg! These two seriously need a collaboration series!! That would be some awesome food! Who else thinks so?
I used brown sugar instead of white because I ran out and used a sprinkle of cinnamon instead of nutmeg cause I also didn’t have any, still turned out sooo good!!
ymb6987 you have no idea my late aunt makes the best boozy eggnog. I don’t know if you have ever watched the tv show the flash but whenever it’s during the Christmas time on the show. They say that their grandma makes really boozy eggnog well, that is exactly how my Aunts was. Especially when she new the in-laws were coming. Cause god knows my family is gonna need a drink to deal with them.
Puerto Ricans make this same holiday "egg-nog" like drink very similar, with the eggs, milk and so forth. However, we put an amazing twist on it to the extreme and bring it to another level with walnuts, fresh cinnamon sticks boiled and use the sticks & juices too, raisins, sprinkled cinnamon as well as Ray & Nephew overproof Rum and Puerto Rican Rum (gold). Its called Coquito. 🥛 Thank me later y'all. If you'd like the actual recipe, let me know. 👍😊🙃😉
Hi, Chef John: Thank you so much for posting this recipe! In my mind, if it's not cooked, it's not real eggnog. Now I will, and I have, used the store-bought stuff or made the quick non-cooked version on occasion and everyone gulped it down. But for my official Christmas and holiday dinners, I have to make this classic, cooked, real eggnog! It's ssssooooo delicious!!! As Ashford & Simpson wrote "Ain't nothing like the real thing, baby!"
Happy New Year! Just wanted to let you know, my granddaughter and I made your recipe and it was a hit. Everyone enjoyed it so much we had to make a second time. We double the second batch!
Made this last year. It was so incredibly delicious. I was so sad when it was all gone. I had to look it up again this year. I am just now realizing I am not entirely sure what stopped me from cooking it any other time of the year. 🤭This is just so good!
Wow, Eggnog recipes bring out all the voiceover critics... Chef John, we love your voice! Thanks for the great recipe! These people need a tall glass of eggnog :)
Just make this and it was a hit! I personally used salted caramel bird dog whiskey in it. I found it made the flavor so layered and amazing! 10/10 must try. I’ve never had eggnog before.
After years of raw eggnog, I'm a convert. I made a double batch of eggnog using Chef John's recipe, unadulterated. We sampled it this evening (Christmas Eve). It is delicious. It'll be a hit, tomorrow. I used Evan Williams' Single Barrel bourbon, five ounces to the two batches. Merry Christmas, y'all.
This recipe is brilliant!!!! My Christmas food craving got me here! Last time I tried making egg nog didn't go well and that was 4 years back. This recipe is brilliant! I'm definitely making this again in time for chirstmas! :D
Been a subscriber of this channel for years... it is my personal mission to find that one video where Chef John doesn't sprinkle some cayenne to his dish. Surprised to find one actually existed already for 6 years.
Carlos Reyes I love coquito! Last Christmas I was at a home goods closeout store in the glass bottle section and could overhear a Puerto Rican mom and daughter talking excitedly in Spanish about how "this one would be perfect for coquito!" I considered speaking up about how coquito is awesome, but didn't want to freak them out by a) being a stranger butting in, and b) giving the jarring realization that some gringas know Español, lol! (Oh, the things I have overheard....)
The non cooked version of this - minus the cream - is pretty much just what we call an egg flip in Australia. It was a pretty popular drink to give to people who were convalescing to build them up, especially if they didn't have a good appetite yet. I suppose drinks like Sustagen and Ensure have taken the place of egg flips nowadays but I still enjoy one from time to time as a comfort/recovery food. It conjures up memories of my mum taking care of us and making them for us as kids when we were recovering from an illness.
@@Soulflytribe04 An egg flip is made from milk, raw egg, vanilla and sugar. It's then shaken, blended or mixed together. It was mainly given to people who had lost their appetites or, for some other reason, couldn't or wouldn't eat solids but could tolerate liquids. If you cook the mixed ingredients it thickens and gives you an egg custard, which was another popular food to give to convalescents as an intro back into solids and it's still used as one of the foods to introduce babies to solids.
Definitely the best eggnog recipe. I was taking extra steps that werent necessary like tempering. I add cinnamon and vanilla to mine, only difference. Sometimes a little clove.
Great video and recipe, Thanks! If, however, you're concerned about salmonella from raw egg whites... which, BTW, should NEVER be served to pregnant women, young children, the elderly or anyone with a compromised immune system. I have a perfectly acceptable (and equally delicious) solution passed down to me from my great grandmother. Instead of separating, use the whole egg (yolks and whites) and cook with the milk (reserve the cream) to 160 F. degrees. Instead of whipping the egg whites, this alternate recipe calls for whipping the heavy cream and adding IT to the cooked milk/egg mixture. This way, no raw egg is consumed yet the whipped cream adds the fluffy, thick consistency of the whipped egg whites. I promise you, there is no difference in taste or texture.
i think i was 13 or so the first time i had eggnog and i liked it ( im from denmark and we only have an age for WHEN! you can buy booze, not drink it ) and now i finally have have good recipe. i think im gonna add a tiny bit of Vanilla,
+MegaMusikMan, yes, I invented the World's Best Eggnog (well, my son and I think so), just a bit of vanilla. I use equal parts bourbon, rum and brandy, I always let the nog cool before adding the vanilla or booze. I also think it is important to let that meld for an hour or so, and bourbon alone would be fine. I was surprised John used the raw egg whites, there has been a lot of push back using raw eggs at all, but that is classic (as is using raw yolks as my mom did) and doesn't waste the whites. I always whipped up cream to fold in as a substitute for the whites. Please do not use cinnamon unless you want to sprinkle it as an experiment.
What would you recommend as far as incorporating a cream liqueur into this eggnog? I recently bought some Pennsylvania Dutch egg nog and it's pretty wonderful but it's also pretty strong because it has three kinds of liquor, it has Brandy, rum, and whiskey. So it's strong and I'm thinking I could use it instead of the heavy cream? Your thoughts?
My favorite Chef-instructor. Another great demonstration. I will be making this recipe Christmas Eve. We have a lot of young children that will be present, so I want to make non alcoholic version. I know I substitute with vanilla extract, but how much?
Same! Pretty much all alcoholic drinks taste really bitter to me, I physically cannot drink any form of beer, so I taste that bitter more than anything else when I drink stuff like this.
Lexy Starwatcher exactly, there are people like us that has super taste buds that just doesn’t like bitter taste of alcohol. I’m glad this can made without alcohol! Sweet tastes better than bitter.
made it this Christmas....came out wonderfully and everyone loved it. I doubled the recipe but should have doubled that LOL thanks Chef John for a new family tradition
I'm a recovering alcoholic and you said I shouldn't make this without the Bourbon... so I didn't. Now I'm back off the wagon... or is it on the wagon? Anyway my wife keeps threatening to leave, says she's serious this time, gonna take the kids and the dog too. Anyways, thanks Chef John, the Eggnog tasted great!
I was annoyed to find here in Liverpool noones selling or even heard of eggnog I was dissapointed until I found this, I'm gonna make my own. is vanilla something you can add?
@foodwishes I've made this recipe for the last few years, love it. Thank you Chef John. Question, mine usually comes out too thick and I end up adding more milk after it's finished. What am I doing wrong?
Idk if you'll ever see this since this was made 5 years ago but if i wanted to add in vanilla extract then at what point do you think that would be good to do?
Sausage wrapped in fat, caramel custard, STUFFED CHEESE, ham, sausage and cheese, eggnog and alcohol all in one month chef john? Someone get me wilford brimley's phone number, I got the betes bruh.
Made this today. It is very very good. I used Tennessee Whiskey and it pairs very well with the nutmeg. Awesome egg nog. I will never use store bought again.

Makes sense for winter.

Jasmin Awany don't know why but it taste weird warm maybe it's just me or the eggs in it
I thought eggnog was for kids.... just found out that it had alchohol on it.. :(
You could leave it out and maybe add a bit of vanilla extract to replicate some of that bourbon flavor.
I'd love to see a mulled wine tutorial!

If you cook the mixed ingredients it thickens and gives you an egg custard, which was another popular food to give to convalescents as an intro back into solids and it's still used as one of the foods to introduce babies to solids.

Kermit the frog to be exact
You're sexy
Sounds kinda like he could be Seth Rogen's long lost twin brother
Oh my, that was way too little liquor. Try german Eggnog on a Weihnachtsmarkt if you get the chance.
I have ALWAYS wanted a good recipe for eggnog! Minus the alcohol (because I am making this for my younger brother), it looks fabulous.
My favorite Chef-instructor. Another great demonstration. I will be making this recipe Christmas Eve. We have a lot of young children that will be present, so I want to make non alcoholic version. I know I substitute with vanilla extract, but how much?

The Grinches multiplied.
Kids, cook your damn eggnog. The Chef knows best.
Honestly, if something has egg in it, I will not touch unless cooked.
lol fuck you there's like a 1/300 000 risk of getting salmonella you weak piece of shit
mugensamurai I'm sure if you put pure alcohol in it, the salmonella will die
+max larsen me to raw eggs can cause food poisoning
max larsen But, the egg whites aren’t cooked, so...
I had Eggnog without the alcoholic stuff. It tastes so much better without the alcoholic stuff for me.
Cole Wright uh thank god I saw your comment
I really wanted to try this
but when he mentioned whiskey
I was so disappointed
@@frankathebutterfly6343 You don't have to add any alcohol to it. I have to have Eggnog without Alcohol in it. You can add Vanilla Extract for flavor.
ya'll are all weaksauce
Same! Pretty much all alcoholic drinks taste really bitter to me, I physically cannot drink any form of beer, so I taste that bitter more than anything else when I drink stuff like this.
Lexy Starwatcher exactly, there are people like us that has super taste buds that just doesn’t like bitter taste of alcohol. I’m glad this can made without alcohol! Sweet tastes better than bitter.
Fantastic recipe! May I use scotch instead of bourbon? Could this whisky change too much the final flavor? Thanks!
made it this Christmas....came out wonderfully and everyone loved it. I doubled the recipe but should have doubled that LOL thanks Chef John for a new family tradition
I'm a recovering alcoholic and you said I shouldn't make this without the Bourbon... so I didn't. Now I'm back off the wagon... or is it on the wagon? Anyway my wife keeps threatening to leave, says she's serious this time, gonna take the kids and the dog too. Anyways, thanks Chef John, the Eggnog tasted great!
I was annoyed to find here in Liverpool noones selling or even heard of eggnog I was dissapointed until I found this, I'm gonna make my own. is vanilla something you can add?
Yes. Kahlua would be nice too.
Man I sure do love this worthikids animation!
@foodwishes I've made this recipe for the last few years, love it. Thank you Chef John. Question, mine usually comes out too thick and I end up adding more milk after it's finished. What am I doing wrong?
Hey Chef John. If we want our eggnog a bit thicker, would we just add a few more egg yolks or would a cornstarch slurry do better?
Who else has an eggnog obsession
I would bathe in egg nog
From the first sip I was hooked and I can smell nutmeg a mile away.
For a minute there, I thought Chef John was going to do a line of nutmeg...
Nah thats Townsend's

Nice.
Greencoast I’m two years late. You win.
Awesome recipe, I make this every holiday season, a couple times.
Idk if you'll ever see this since this was made 5 years ago but if i wanted to add in vanilla extract then at what point do you think that would be good to do?
when this guy is speaking he sound so funny I couldn't concentrate😂😂😂
Do we need to be older than your average subscriber to laugh at your pun about leather and Naughahyde?
+Peggy Manfredi Probably. ;)
+D Newman Corinthian leather is extinct. The last existing remnants of it were devoured by Chrysler Corp and Ricardo Montalban, LOL
+Peggy Manfredi - That would be "Nog"ahyde!
Anonymoose bahahahahaha
vegasrenie : I had to listen to it a couple of times before I caught on and. lol-ed. cute.
I don't think one can achieve a hangover from that small amount of whiskey lol
Question for you @chefJohn why don't you add the nutmeg to the mixture before cooking?
I think I will try this in a few weeks. I love that I found this channel.
I like the way you say "An eggnog hangover is not recommended."
is okay to put vanilla flavoring in it
Yes
Sausage wrapped in fat, caramel custard, STUFFED CHEESE, ham, sausage and cheese, eggnog and alcohol all in one month chef john? Someone get me wilford brimley's phone number, I got the betes bruh.
Made this today. It is very very good. I used Tennessee Whiskey and it pairs very well with the nutmeg. Awesome egg nog. I will never use store bought again.
I was wondering why the other video i watched told me no ingredient amounts but then i read the description.
Wow. Just wow.
