SERVES 8
This recipe is very rich. A little goes a long way.
3 cups heavy or whipping cream
1 vanilla beans
THE NIGHT BEFORE
In a small metal bowl, place cream and add 1 vanilla bean. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
1 vanilla bean
1⁄2 cup sugar
6 egg yolks
11⁄2 cups fresh peaches, skinned and diced
THE NEXT DAY
In a food processor, place the second vanilla bean and blend until finely pulverized. Add sugar and continue to process until sugar is finely pulverized. Transfer the sugar mixture to a medium bowl, add egg yolks, and whisk until blended. In a medium saucepan, heat cream and vanilla bean over medium heat until almost boiling. Discard the first vanilla bean and pour cream in a thin stream into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium-low heat to make a light custard, about 5 to 7 minutes. Do not allow to boil. Remove from heat, cool, cover, and refrigerate until cold. Pour the mixture into an ice cream freezer and fold in peaches. Freeze in an ice cream maker following manufacturer’s directions.
