- pinch salt

Instructions

- Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together egg yolks and sugar. Gradually add sugar a couple of tablespoons at a time whisking thoroughly before each addition.
- Using a ladle add about 1/2 cup of the hot cream mixture to the egg yolk mixture; whisking thoroughly. Keep adding the hot cream; whisking thoroughly between each addition. When most of the hot mixture has been combined with the egg mixture (about 3/4 of it) pour it back into the saucepan.
