How to Make Fannie Farmer Pistachio Ice Cream
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in the milk and cream until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a simmer (about 8-10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in the pistachio paste and vanilla extract.
- Press the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.
- Pour the custard into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to chill thoroughly.
- Once chilled, churn the custard in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours to harden further before serving.
