Preparation

  1. In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine cream, milk, sugar and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
  2. Beat egg yolks in a mixing bowl until pale — 2 to 3 minutes.

  4. Remove pot from heat; chill over ice, stirring if lumps appear.
  5. Strain mixture, and transfer to an ice cream machine. Follow manufacturer’s instructions
