To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook homemade vanilla bean ice cream using 6 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

Vanilla ice cream is one of the most popular ice cream flavors. You can use it for sundaes, floats or ice cream sandwiches. 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). While the milk/cream mixture is heating, combine the yolks and remaining sugar in a medium bowl.
Steps to make Homemade Vanilla Bean Ice Cream:
- Add cream, milk, sugar, salt and vanilla beans/pod to a medium pot. Heat on low until sugar dissolves.
- Meanwhile beat egg yolks until creamy.
- Once sugar has dissolved, gradually mix in one third of the hot cream mixture into the beaten egg yolks. Add the egg yolk mixture back into the pot.
- Heat on low to medium-low heat, stirring often, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and leave a clean line when you run your finger though it. It should only take a couple of minutes.
- Turn off heat. Cover the pot and let the vanilla steep for 30 minutes in the custard.
- After 30 minutes, strain the custard through a fine sieve to remove any eggy clumps and the vanilla pods.
- Let the custard cool then put into the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Pour into a plastic container and put into the freezer. Mix up well every hour to help break up the ice crystals and keep it creamy. After 3-4 hours the ice cream should be still soft bu just hard enough to eat! Alternatively, use your ice cream maker to finish up the ice cream.
- If you have left overs and they freeze until they're very hard, then set out the ice cream for 20-30 minutes to soften up before serving.
