- 500 ml heavy whipping cream (at least 36% milkfat) cold
- 6 large egg yolks
- 120 g granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract high-quality
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla bean pod) optional
- pinch fine sea salt
- 250 ml whole milk
Instructions
- Pour the cold heavy cream into a large bowl or jar. Set aside.
- Separate 6 egg yolks from the egg whites and place the egg yolks into a heat-safe bowl. (Refrigerate or freeze the egg whites for later use).
- In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks with sugar, vanilla extract, vanilla bean paste (if using), pinch of salt and set aside.

- While whisking the egg mixture, gradually pour in the warmed milk (known as tempering the eggs).

- Pour the ice cream mixture through a sieve into the cold heavy cream.
- Give the mixture a stir and cover with a lid/plastic wrap.
- Place into the refrigerator to chill for at least 6-8 hours, or overnight.
- The next day, churn the ice cream according to your ice cream manufacturer's instructions.
- Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and place into the freezer.
