1 Egg white, beaten (for egg wash)
1 Pie shell, pre-made
2 1/2 cups Milk, scalded

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400° F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, salt, and vanilla.
Gradually pour in the milk, whisking to combine. Ensure the milk is cooled if scalded.
Use a pastry brush to coat the inside of the pie shell with the egg wash.
Pour the filling into the prepared shell.
Sprinkle nutmeg on top using a fine-mesh strainer.
Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until the edges are firm and the center jiggles slightly.
Allow to cool on a cooling rack and then refrigerate before serving.
