Ingredients
  

  • 5 cups whole milk, divided (1 cup + 2 cups + 2 cups) (245 g + 490 g + 490 g)
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) all-purpose flour
  • 6 eggs
  • 3 tbsp (40 g) bacon grease (from about 4 slices)

Instructions
 

  • Mix 1 cup milk and all-purpose flour in a small bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups of milk and eggs until frothy.

  • Add 2 cups of milk, heating until warm and barely simmering.
  • Add egg / milk mixture and heat through.
  • Add flour / milk mixture and heat until thickened, whisking often to prevent lumps. Serve warm over Swedish rye bread.
