Vanilla Ice Cream

How to make it

1. 1

   Whisk everything together well while cold and place over the heat; remove it the very moment it is about to boil.

2. 2

   Stir until cold. Freeze. Serves 12.

3. 3

   N.B. You may also whisk the egg yolks and the sugar for 1/4 hour; add the cream, which has been brought to a boil, together with the vanilla. Return everything to the pot, place over the heat and bring to the boiling point, but it must not boil. Pour it out and stir until it is well cooled. Remove the vanilla. Freeze.

4. 4

   Instead of boiling the cream you may whip it stiff and fold it into the egg yolks, sugar and vanilla that have been whisked together, that is, with no heat at all.
