Put milk in a pot. Cut the vanilla bean in half and remove beans, putting both into the milk. Scald the milk by bringing it to a simmer.
While the milk scalds, whisk the yolks, sugar, and salt together until frothy. Temper the eggs by adding about a quarter of the milk to the eggs, whisking as you go. Repeat until you have added all the milk.
Return the mixture to the pot and the heat. Stir and cook until nice and creamy, the thickness will be heavy cream texture, it will coat the back of the spoon instead of running off like milk. It will reach this consistency around 165-170 degrees. Must cook until 165, it will not thicken until that temperature. do NOT cook over 184 degrees. You will end up with scrambled eggs at the bottom of the pot.
Immediately change containers and mix in cold cream. Either put container into an ice bath or allow to refrigerate over night. Chill to at least 40 degrees. After it has chilled, strain it to remove any scrambled eggs and the pod.
Follow manufacturer directions on ice cream machine. Freeze over night or 4 hours.
