Servings: persons

5 cups milk
6 ounces sweet butter
3/4 cup raisins
5 large eggs
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon grated fresh nutmeg

1
In a saucepan melt the butter in the milk to scald.

While the milk is heating, place the raisins in another saucepan with water to cover and bring to a boil to plump the raisins.
3
Drain well and set aside.
4
In a bowl whisk together the eggs, sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla and salt.
5
Add milk in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly (or else the eggs will curdle).
6
Add raisins and bread.
7
Push down the bread to make sure it soaks up most of the custard mixture but is still very moist.
8
Place in a buttered two-quart (about 10 inches in diameter) baking pan or earthenware crock.
9
Place this in a larger baking pan filled halfway with hot water.
10
Cover it all with tin foil.
