Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

September 21st, 2010

Since today is the last official day of summer, I wanted to end the season with a quintessential warm weather treat.  A few weeks back I purchased an ice cream maker on Gilt Groupe (click here if you’d like an invite) and I’ve been pouring over recipes ever since.  I couldn’t wait to meld complex flavors together and play with herbal notes, floral hints and exotic spices.  But after much deliberation, I decided that there’s really nothing better than ice cream in its purest form and went with this recipe.   The vanilla flavor was intoxicating and I was pleasantly surprised by the smooth and creamy texture.
