Bay Leaf & Vanilla Ice Cream
Ingredients
1 vanilla bean
240ml double cream
180ml full cream milk
5 fresh bay leaves
Pinch of salt
3 egg yolks
80g caster sugar
Method
Step 1: Infuse the milk
Slice the vanilla bean in half and scrape the seeds. Place the bean and seeds in a medium saucepan with the cream, milk, bay leaves and salt.
Place over a medium-low heat and bring just to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Do not allow the mixture to boil. Remove from the heat.
Step 2: Prep the custard
Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl, until pale and thickened.
Slowly pour in the milk mixture, whisking constantly, until smooth. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and place over a medium-low heat.
Cook, stirring constantly, until the custard reaches 75°C (167°F) and has thickened slightly.
Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
Step 3: Strain and freeze
Pour the custard through a fine sieve to strain out the solids.
Transfer the custard to a Ninja Creami container. Freeze for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.
Step 4: Blend and serve
Remove the container from the freezer and place in the Ninja Creami handle. Process as per machine directions until creamy and smooth. Enjoy!
