Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Cut the vanilla pod open lengthwise and scrape out the pulp with the back of a knife. Bring milk, vanilla pulp and pod to the boil in a pot, remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Mix egg yolks and sugar until light creamy.

2. 2

   Slowly stir in half of the vanilla milk, then pour it back into the pot. Peel off the cream over low heat while stirring constantly to form a rose (cream thickens, but should not boil).

3. 3

   Pour the cream through a sieve into a bowl and allow to cool while stirring several times. Cover with foil and chill.
