Wheat and Honey

¾ cup sugar ½ tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp grated nutmeg ¼ tsp allspice 1/8 tsp salt 1 egg 4 egg whites 1 ½ cups milk 1 ½ cups half-and-half

Combine sugar with the spices in a large bowl. Add the egg and egg whites and beat on high speed for 5 minutes.

Heat 1 cup of milk, stirring constantly, until it is steaming (not boiling). Slowly mix half of that into the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture back into the hot milk in the pan. On medium heat, cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring constantly, until it is steaming again and thickened enough to thinly coat the back of the spoon. Do not boil it.

Remove from heat and stir it frequently as it cools for 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining milk and half-and-half. Cover and chill.
