Steps:
- 1. Split vanilla bean in half lengthwise with a thin-bladed knife. Put the cream, milk, and sugar into a medium saucepan. Scrape the seeds of the vanilla bean into the liquid and drop the vanilla bean into the pan. Stir, and heat until steaming.

Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-low heat until the custard thickens slightly and coats the back of a wooden spoon. (Do not allow the custard to boil or it will curdle.) 2. Remove the custard from the heat and pour through a strainer into a clean container. Add the vanilla bean to the container. Cool completely, then remove the vanilla bean, cover, and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight. Stir the mixture and transfer to an ice cream machine.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. This means using real vanilla extract, not vanilla flavoring.
- Don't skimp on the salt. Salt helps to balance the sweetness of the ice cream and enhances the flavor of the vanilla.
- Churn the ice cream until it is thick and creamy. This will help to prevent it from becoming icy.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe. Pour the custard mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze it for 4-6 hours, stirring every hour or so.
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- Add your favorite mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or fruit, before churning the ice cream.
