Vanilla Ice Cream without Eggs

3 cups heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

3/4 cup sugar

Pinch of salt

1 vanilla bean split in half lengthwise

1/4 teaspoon real vanilla extract

Pour 1 cup of cream into a medium saucepan and add the sugar and salt. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla beam and add to the cream mixture. Then drop the bean pod into the saucepan. Warm over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. 

Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining 2 cups of cream, the milk, and the vanilla extract. Stir well. 

Chill the mixture thoroughly in the refrigerator. When cold and ready to churn, remove the vanilla bean pod, then freeze the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. 

This is a recipe that my brother gave me.
