Time 3h35m

Yield Makes About 1 1/2 Quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup sugar, divided
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped and pod reserved
6 large egg yolks

Steps:

  • Combine cream, milk, and salt in a saucepan. Add 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar. Add vanilla bean seeds and pod. Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring, about 4 minutes.
  • Whisk together egg yolks and remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar. Whisk half the hot milk mixture into yolks, 1 ladle at a time. Pour mixture into pan, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until custard is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes.
  • Pour custard through a fine sieve into a bowl set in a larger bowl of ice water; discard vanilla pod. Let cool, stirring occasionally. Refrigerate custard until cold, at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
  • Chill a loaf pan in freezer. Freeze custard in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. Transfer to pan. Cover with plastic wrap, and freeze until hardened, at least 2 hours and up to 3 days. (If ice cream is in freezer longer than 2 hours, let soften at room temperature 10 minutes before scooping.)

I've tried this recipe a few times now, and it's always a hit with my family and friends. The ice cream is always smooth and creamy, and the flavor is spot-on. I especially love the way the vanilla pairs with the lemon curd and pistachios.

This vanilla ice cream recipe is a perfect complement to the lemon curd and pistachio flavors in the sundaes. It's rich and creamy, with a hint of sweetness that balances out the tartness of the lemon curd. I also love that it's so easy to make - jus
