3 cups (750 ml) milk

1 cup (250 ml) sugar

1 vanilla bean, split and scraped

6 tablespoons (90 ml) cornstarch

1 cup (250 ml) 35% cream

4 egg yolks

1 egg

In a saucepan, bring milk, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds to a boil. Remove from heat, cover and let steep for 10 minutes.

In a bowl, dissolve cornstarch in cream with a whisk. Add egg yolks and whole egg. Slowly incorporate into infused milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula, taking care to scrape the bottom of the pan, until mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and strain. Cover with plastic wrap directly on cream and let cool in the refrigerator or over an ice water bath. Set aside.
