  • 6 large egg yolks
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp black truffle oil
  • a splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups heavy cream and 1 cup whole milk. Heat over medium until it just starts to simmer, then remove from heat.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 6 large egg yolks, and a pinch of salt until pale and thick.
  3. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
  4. Return the mixture to the saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 tbsp black truffle oil and a splash of vanilla extract.
  6. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Cool to room temperature, then cover and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
  7. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes.
  8. Transfer to an airtight container. Freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.

Luxuriously creamy with a bold truffle aroma, this ice cream pairs surprisingly well with dark chocolate shavings or a drizzle of honey. Serve it in chilled bowls to keep it extra firm.
