Ingredients
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 0.5 cup sugar

Method
 

  1. Gather the ingredients.
  2. Mix milk and cream in a medium saucepan. Warm until foam forms around the edges. Remove from heat.
  3. Beat egg yolks and sugar until frothy in a large bowl. Gradually pour warm milk into egg yolks and sugar, whisking constantly. Return mixture to saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture gels slightly and coats the back of the spoon. If small egg lumps begin to show, remove from heat immediately.
  4. Pour the mixture through a sieve or fine strainer into a bowl. Cover, and chill for 2 hours to overnight.
  5. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a sealed container, and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.
