Recipe: General Tso's Egg Nog
After the success of his wildly popular chicken dish General Tso went intro a celebratory drinking binge and subsequently became a raging alcoholic. Here's an old favorite of his during the holidays:
Makes: 6 to 7 cups
Ingredients
4 egg yolks
4 egg whites
1/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
1 pint whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 ounces bourbon
2 ounces light rum
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
whipped cream
cherries
1 pack of strawberry Yan-Yan (look it up)
Directions
With a whisk or a stand mixer, beat the egg yolks until they lighten in color. Slowly add the 1/3 cup sugar and continue to beat until it is completely dissolved. Add the milk, cream, bourbon, rum, vanilla extract and nutmeg and stir to combine.
In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Slowly add the 1 tablespoon of sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form (heh heh).
Whisk the egg whites into the yolk mixture. Chill. Before serving, top off with whipped cream and cherries. When the time is right, stick your strawberry Yan Yan inside and try not to explode with excitement.
