1. 1

   In large saucepan, beat together eggs, sugar and salt, if desired. Stir in 2 cups of the milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon with a thin film and reaches at least 1600F. Remove from heat.

2. 2

   Stir in remaining 2 cups milk and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, several hours orovernight. Just before serving, pour into bowl or pitcher. Garnish or add stir-ins, if desired. Serve immediately. For faster preparation, heat milk until very warm before stirring milk into eggs and sugar.
