CUSTARD-STYLE ICE CREAMS
VANILLA BEAN ICE CREAM
For the true vanilla lover. Be sure to use fresh vanilla beans to
capture the intense flavor.
Makes about 5 cups (ten ½-cup servings)
2 cups whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
pinch sea or kosher salt
1 whole vanilla bean, halved and seeds scraped
5 large egg yolks
1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1. In a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat, whisk
together the milk, cream, half of the sugar, salt and the scraped
vanilla bean (including the pod). Bring the mixture just to a boil.
2. While the milk/cream mixture is heating, combine the yolks and
remaining sugar in a medium bowl. Using a hand mixer on low
speed or whisk, beat until mixture is pale and thick.
3. Once the milk/cream mixture has come to a slight boil, whisk
about ¹∕
³
of the hot mixture into the yolk/sugar mixture. Add
another ¹∕
³
of the mixture, then return the combined mixture to
the saucepan. Using a wooden spoon, stir the mixture
constantly over low heat until it thickens slightly and coats the
back of the spoon. This mixture must NOT boil or the yolks will
overcook – the process should only take a few minutes.
4. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer (discard the
vanilla pod) and bring to room temperature. Stir in the vanilla.
Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or overnight. Whisk
mixture together again before pouring into the ice cream maker.
5. Pour the mixture into the mixing bowl of the Cuisinart® Ice
Cream and Gelato Maker fitted with the ice cream paddle.
Turn unit on, set Timer and press Start. Let mix until thickened,
about 40 to 50 minutes. The ice cream will have a soft, creamy
texture. Serve or store in airtight container in freezer.
