Off heat, add boiling milk and beat vigorously with a whisk until well blended. Add 1 teaspoon salt, peppers and nutmeg. Return to heat and boil, stirring, for 1 minute. Off heat, add yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Correct seasoning. Seasoning should be strong as the upcoming addition of the whites will dilute the flavor. Whisk egg whites with a large pinch of salt and cream of tartar. Then fold the lightened base into the remaining whites. Place on the middle rack of the oven. Lower the heat to Bake 20 minutes, or until risen and set. To achieve maximum volume, egg whites must be room temperature or slightly tepid.
However, eggs must be separated when they are cold, as a cold yolk is less likely to break than a warmer one. After separating, refrigerate the yolks. Let the whites come to room temperature, or place them in a metal bowl and swirl them over but not touching a low flame or boiling water until lukewarm. Very fresh egg whites do not whip up as well as older ones. It is easier to use an electric mixer standing or handheld than to whisk by hand.
For the best result, start on low and gradually raise the speed as the whites mount. After one minute of beating, add cream of tartar to help egg whites gain and hold volume. Adding it too quickly will deflate the egg whites.
The whites should hold soft not stiff peaks. Overly-beaten whites break up into little "icebergs" that willnot fold smoothly into the base. When in doubt, under-beating is preferable to over-beating. You can tell they're just right by testing to see if they'll stand at about a 45 degree angle.
Be conscious while you fold. Folding egg whites into a custard is not like mixing up pancake batter. You want to be a little more gentle. The best way to do this is to push the egg whites gently down and pull the heavier custard up in a sort of S shape. And try not to overmix. It's better if there are a few streaks of egg whites left than to mix all the air out of your egg whites.
