Heat the milk in a pot. When it boils, reduce the heat and add the sugar, salt, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir constantly with a spatula to prevent it from sticking. When it has reduced by half, remove from heat and let it cool. Beat the egg yolks until they change color and add them to the warm milk while continuing to whisk.
