French Vanilla Ice Cream

One quart of very rich sweet cream, half a pound of granulated sugar, and the yolks of six eggs. Put the cream and sugar in a porcelain kettle over the fire; when they come to a boil strain through a hair sieve, then add the eggs, well beaten, slowly to the cream and sugar while hot; stir rapidly. Place on the fire again; stir a few minutes; pour into the freezer, and flavor with a teaspoonful of vanilla.
