Instructions: Sprinkle salt over egg yolks; beat thoroughly. In separate bowl, add sugar to milk (to taste, should be a little sweeter than finished custard). Add milk to eggs, mix thoroughly.

Ladle mixture into custard cups and sprinkle tops with nutmeg. Place cups in a pan filled with 1 inch of water; bake at 350 degrees F. about 45 minutes (test middles with toothpick). If water begins to boil, drop the oven temperature.

(Use egg whites for Angel Food Cake.)
