4 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of salt
1 1/4 cups whole milk

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Whisk egg yolks, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl until combined; set aside.
  • Put milk, cream, vanilla bean, and seeds into a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low. Pour half of hot-milk mixture into reserved yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Pour mixture back into pan.
