GRANDMA'S CUSTARD PIE (YELLOW PIE)
My grandma made the most wonderful custard pie. When I got to stay the night or weekend with her, she would always have this for me. Of course I could never ever make this like I remembered until I finally asked her for the recipe. One thing I cannot replicate is the use of fresh whole milk, but have come up with a pretty close substitution. THIS is comfort food at its' finest.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Scald milk (I use 1 cup half and half mixed with 1-1/2 cups whole milk). Set aside.
- In large mixing bowl slightly beat eggs, blend in sugar, salt, vanilla and almond extract.
- Gradually stir in scalded milk. Do not overbeat as this will create an unwanted foam. Pour into prepared pie shell and lightly sprinkle freshly grated nutmeg over the top.
- Bake 30-35 minutes or until knife inserted in center of pie comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool 30-60 minutes before slicing and serving.
