Orange Blossom Ice Cream

Instructions

1. 1

   Scald half-and-half over medium heat in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat.

2. 2

   In a stand mixer whisk together the yolks and sugar until light and fluffy, then gradually pour the scalded half-and-half down the side of the bowl as the mixer is still going.

3. 3
   Pour the mixture back into the saucepan, continually stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture has thickened and will coat the back of the spoon. Remove from heat, and pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Add in orange water and chill the custard thoroughly over an ice bath. Let sit about half an hour.
4. 4
   Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker. Allow the ice cream to churn until finished, and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
