Zubereitung von Grandma's Egg Custard Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and frothy.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups scalded whole milk until fully combined. (Scald milk by heating it just until it begins to simmer.)
- For a richer yellow hue, add 2-3 drops of yellow food coloring (optional).
- Gently brush the inside bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie crust with 1 large egg white to help prevent a soggy bottom.
- Pour the custard mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Sprinkle generously with freshly grated nutmeg.
- Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any spills. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. The center may still jiggle slightly.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This allows the custard to set properly.
