A recipe from Good Eats:
SERIOUS VANILLA ICE CREAM
Recipe courtesy Alton Brown
2 cups half-and-half
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup minus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons peach preserves (not jelly)
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
Combine all ingredients (including the bean and its pulp) in a large
saucepan and place over medium heat. Attach a frying or candy thermometer
to inside of pan. (see note below) Stirring occasionally, bring the mixture
to 170 degrees F. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Remove the
hull of the vanilla bean, pour mixture into lidded container and
refrigerate mixture overnight to mellow flavors and texture.
Freeze mixture in ice cream freezer according to unit's instructions. The
mixture will not freeze hard in the machine. Once the volume has increased
by 1/2 to 3/4 times, and reached a soft serve consistency, spoon the
mixture back into a lidded container and harden in the freezer at least 1
hour before serving.
NOTE: If you do not have a thermometer, bring the mixture just barely to a
simmer. As soon as you see a bubble hit the surface, remove it from the
heat. Do not let it boil.
