Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 large eggs
2/3 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 c whole milk* (note below)
1 tsp pure vanilla
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Steps:

1. Wisk all ingredients together, pour into a 9 1/2" deep dish pie plate lined with an unbaked pie pastry crust. Bake at 340 dF for approximately 1-hr 10-min or until set in the middle. Cover the pastry crust edges with a pie shield or foil after being in oven about 30 minutes; so it does not get tooo brown.
2. *NOTE: I wanted to use sour milk instead so... I made 'sour milk' by adding 2 Tablespoons of lemon juice (can also use distilled white vinegar) in a 4-cup measuring vessel and adding the whole milk. Just gave it a stir and let set about 15 minutes to thicken and looked like it was begining to curdle.

Bake at 375 until done - approximately 35 minutes - the custard should be not fully set but a knife inserted into the custard should come out clean. Let sit about 10 minutes before serving so the custard sets.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality eggs. Fresh eggs will produce a richer, creamier custard.
Temper the eggs. This means bringing the eggs to room temperature before adding them to the hot milk. This will prevent the eggs from curdling.
Use a double boiler or bain-marie. This will help to ensure that the custard cooks evenly and does not scorch.
Stir the custard constantly. This will help to prevent the custard from curdling or forming a skin.
Strain the custard. This will remove any lumps or impurities.
Chill the custard. This will help to set the custard and make it easier to handle.
Serve the custard immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
