Ingredients

3 cups dairy-free milk (soy, hemp, rice, almond, etc.)
1 cup granulated sugar
pinch sea salt
1 to 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
5 large egg yolks

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat, add the milk, half of the sugar, salt and the vanilla extract. Whisk to combine and bring the mixture just to a boil.

2. While the milk mixture is heating, combine the yolks and remaining sugar in a medium bowl. Using a hand mixer on low speed or whisk, beat until mixture is pale and thick.

3. Once the milk mixture has come to a slight boil, whisk about 1/3 of the hot mixture into the yolk/sugar mixture. Add another 1/3 of the mixture, then return the combined mixture to the saucepan. Using a wooden spoon, stir the mixture constantly over low heat until it thickens slightly and coats the back of the spoon. This mixture must NOT boil or the yolks will overcook. the process should only take a few minutes.

4. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer and bring to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours, or overnight.

5. Turn the Cuisinart® Ice Cream Maker on; pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl and let mix until thickened, about 30 to 35 minutes. The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.
