Original Recipe Yield 2 quarts
 

Ingredients

  • 1 quart heavy cream
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar, divided
  • 10 egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine cream and milk. Place vanilla bean and scrapings in pot, and sprinkle with half the white sugar. Allow to just come to a boil.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk the egg yolks together with the remaining sugar and the vanilla extract in a bowl. When the cream is ready, pour a third of it into the egg mixture, and whisk. Pour egg mixture into remaining hot cream and return to the heat until mixture coats the back of a metal spoon. Do not boil.
  3. Strain custard and chill until cold. Then pour into the canister of an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions.
