French Ice-Cream

Boil one quart of cream with a long vanilla bean, and then cool and strain. Beat the yolks of a dozen eggs, and mingle with three-fourths of a pound of sugar, mix the flavored cream with the eggs, stir over the fire, take it off as soon as it begins to thicken, and stir for five minutes, then cool and freeze.
