Looking for an ice cream recipe which does not require an ice cream maker I decided to give this one a try - and it turned out great! I heated one whole vanilla bean with the milk and removed it when reducing the heat and combining with the eggs. Then I cooled the hot mixture in a cold bain marie whisking constantly, refrigerated as suggested for two hours, whipped the whipping cream and folded it into the cooled mixture along with vanilla essence. This was really delicious, thanks for posting!

Tried this just out of curiosity. I am a pretty fervent believer making my own just about everything, with obvious exceptions. This, however, was so not worth the time and trouble to get good ice cream. There are such great ice creams on the market, so quality isn't an issue. Second, there is the risk of using uncooked eggs, although you can get pasteurized eggs. Third, it really requires a lot of attention and some freezer space. My vote: if you want homemade ice cream, use an ice cream maker. I have one but can never seem to find space in my freezer to get it ready. But, Chacun a son gout.
