Vanilla Ice Cream Without an Ice Cream Maker: The Best Recipe

Gently heat the milk with the split vanilla bean without bringing it to a boil. Meanwhile, beat the egg yolks with the sugar.

Remove the vanilla pod, taking care to scrape the inside with the tip of a knife beforehand to collect the seeds and incorporate them into the milk.

Then add the milk to the eggs, continue to beat gently, then return the mixture to the heat with the cornstarch dissolved in a little water.

Mix everything well and wait a few minutes for the mixture to thicken.

Finally, wait for the mixture to cool, then store it in the refrigerator for a few hours. Next, add the cream, mix again, and churn in an ice cream maker.
