Pour back into your saucepan and cook, stirring to prevent the cream from sticking, at 85°C or until it coats your spoon.

Remove from the heat and continue to mix gently for 5 minutes. This will aide homogenize cream and making it creamy. Avoid the immersion blender, unless you have a lot of lumps, which would break the texture of the cream.

Pour the cream into a salad bowl or a dish then film in contact. Reserve in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

Making the ice cream:

The next day, remove the vanilla pod from the cream and pour it into your ice cream maker or ice cream maker.

Now your vanilla ice cream is ready. Let it set in the freezer and take it out a little early so that it is at the right temperature (the ideal temperature for consuming ice cream is around -5°C).

Enjoy!
