Instructions
  1. Heat milk, honey, and the scraped vanilla pod in a saucepan until scalding. Whisk together the egg yolks, salt, and cornstarch until smooth and pale. Temper the yolks with a little of the hot milk mixture. Whisk slowly. Continue adding the milk little by little, whisking until smooth.
  2. Pour the custard base back into the saucepan and place over low heat. Cook slowly, whisking continuously until thickened. The custard should come to a gentle boil.
  3. Remove the custard from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla extract. Sieve to remove any lumps. Cover with plastic wrap and cool to room temperature.
  4. Pour the cooled custard into the pie crust(s). Cover with plastic wrap and chill completely (about 2 hours).

Instructions
  1. For the crust, stir together the flour, salt, sugar, and cinnamon.
  2. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse sand. (Alternatively, pulse the dry ingredients with the butter in a food processor.)
  3. Slowly drizzle in cold water and stir gently until the dough is moist enough to stay together when squeezed. (Alternatively, drizzle cold water into food processor, pulsing a few times to combine.)
  4. Quickly press the dough into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  5. When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350° F. Roll the dough out in between two pieces of parchment and then press into tart pan(s). Line crust(s) with parchment and fill with pie weights.
  6. Blind bake the pie crusts for 10 to 12 minutes or until the crust is cooked through. Remove the pie weights and parchment and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes until the edges start to brown. Set the crusts aside to cool.
  7. Heat milk, honey, and the scraped vanilla pod in a saucepan until scalding. Whisk together the egg yolks, vanilla caviar (i.e. the scraped beans from the vanilla pod), salt, and cornstarch until smooth and pale. Temper the yolks with a little of the hot milk mixture. Whisk slowly. Continue adding the milk little by little, whisking until smooth.
  8. Pour the custard base back into the saucepan and place over low heat. Cook slowly, whisking continuously until thickened. The custard should come to a gentle boil.
  9. Remove the custard from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla extract. Fish out the vanilla pod and sieve to remove any lumps. Cover with plastic wrap and cool to room temperature.
  10. Pour the cooled custard into the cooled pie crust(s). Cover with plastic wrap and chill completely (about 2 hours).
  11. Set the tart out at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Instructions
  1. Divide butter into 2 portions, place 1 of these in a bowl or the upper part of a double boiler. Add the egg yolks and lemon juice, place over hot water (not boiling) and stir constantly until the butter is melted. Add the remaining butter and continue stirring, preferably with a wire whisk, until this butter also is melted. Add the hot water and cook, still stirring constantly, until thick. Remove from heat and season with salt and white pepper.
Recipe Notes

And I messed this one up too:  I melted the butter, whisking, with the egg yolk and lemon juice, but then I added the hot water and whisked until thick.  Or at least reduced...  Then I added the butter, and followed the rest of the instructions.  Still turned out great!  Though the lemon juice really stood out - maybe wouldn't be quite so strong if I'd done it the right way...

Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together milk, sugar, egg yolks, and salt. Place pan over medium-high heat and whisk until mixture reaches a simmer. Lower heat to medium and whisk for 5 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken. Strain mixture into a large bowl, then whisk in half-and- half, cream, and vanilla. (and bourbon and maple syrup for maple bourbon ice cream) Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
  2. Meanwhile, freeze an empty freezer-safe shallow bowl or pan. Stainless steel works well for this. Place the cold mixture into the cold pan.
  3. Chill for about 20 minutes and check your ice cream. As the edges start to freeze, stir the mixture rapidly with a whisk or spatula to break up the partially frozen ice cream. This will help make it smooth and creamy. You cannot over-beat. Return to the freezer.
  4. Stir ice cream vigorously every 30 minutes until it is firmly frozen. This may be repeated 4 to 5 times until mixture is smooth and creamy. If ice cream becomes too hard, place it into the refrigerator until it becomes soft enough to beat and continue the process.
  5. Ripen the ice cream by storing it in a covered freezer container until ready to serve.
Recipe Notes

Chocolate Ice Cream Variation: After straining mixture in step 1, add 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips and stir until melted and fully incorporated. Continue with recipe.

Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Variation: In step 1, substitute 1 teaspoon peppermint extract for 1 teaspoon vanilla. Once ice cream’s made, stir in 2 cups mini chocolate chips.

Peanut Butter Ice Cream Variation: After straining mixture in step 1, add 1 cup smooth peanut butter and stir until fully incorporated. Continue with recipe.

Maple Bourbon with Candied Bacon: After straining mixture in step 1, add 1 1/2 C maple syrup, 1/4 tsp. sea salt, and 4 Tbsp bourbon.  Stir until fully incorporated. Continue with recipe.  Add 4-5 strips of bacon or candied bacon, finely chopped, during the last mixing session. (Or have some to sprinkle on top)

**Chocolate Cherry Cordial:  (Haven't tested yet!!)  After straining mixture in step 1, add 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, 4 Tbsp (booze, lots of options, maybe cherry flavor?), maybe substitute cherry extract for vanilla? Serve with maraschino cherries.  (If extract doesn't work, add ~5oz. of chopped cherries)

You can substitute 3/4 C milk and 1/4 C heavy cream in place of half and half
