4 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. milk, scalded
1 (9 inch) unbaked pastry shell (roll dough 1/8 inch thick)

In a bowl, thoroughly mix eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla. Slowly stir in hot milk; pour immediately into pie shell. To avoid spilling, fill at oven. Sprinkle top with nutmeg. Bake at 475 degrees for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 425 degrees and bake for 10 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between center and edge comes out clean. Cool on rack. Serve cool or chill.
