Comment préparer Fresh Mint Ice Cream

In a saucepan, combine 2 cups heavy cream and 1 cup whole milk.
Add 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves, finely chopped.
Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until just simmering. Do not boil.
Remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 15 minutes to infuse the mint flavor.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks and ¾ cup granulated sugar until pale and thick.
Strain the cream mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean saucepan, discarding the mint leaves.
Heat the strained cream mixture over medium-low heat until it gently simmers.
Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes). Do not boil.
Optional: Stir in a few drops of green food coloring for a more vibrant hue.
Remove from heat and let the custard cool completely, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
Pour the cooled custard into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually about 20-25 minutes).
Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to harden further.
Scoop into bowls and garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, and fresh mint sprigs.
