Yield: 1 servings

1 1/2 c Milk
1 1/2 c Heavy cream
3 lg Eggs
3/4 c Sugar
1 ts Freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 ts Salt

In a saucepan bring the milk and the cream just to a boil. In a bowl whisk
together the eggs, the sugar, the nutmeg, the salt, and the vanilla, whisk
1/2 cup of the milk mixture into the egg mixture, and whisk the mixture

in an ice-cream freezer according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Makes about 1 quart.
