How to Make Homemade Frozen Custard

1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
2. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth.
3. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks.
6. Temper the egg yolks by slowly whisking in a small amount of the hot milk mixture.
7. Pour the tempered egg yolks into the remaining milk mixture and whisk constantly.
8. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the custard has thickened slightly. Do not boil.
9. Remove from heat and strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
10. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming.
11. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 4 hours.
12. Once chilled, churn the custard in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
13. Once churned, transfer the frozen custard to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to harden further.
