Ingredients

1 c. heavy cream

2 c. whole milk

1/8 t. fine salt

1 vanilla bean

1/8 t. freshly grated nutmeg

1/2 c. superfine sugar

4 large egg yolks

1 T. matcha powder, sifted*

8 oz. white chocolate, finely chopped

Directions

In a medium heavy saucepan, bring the cream, milk, vanilla beans/pod, nutmeg, sugar and salt to low boil, stirring constantly.

Sit aside to infuse.

After 10 minutes, fish out the vanilla pod pieces with a slotted spoon.

Meanwhile, whisk the eggs until they become noticably paler yellow.

Pour the warm cream mixture in a thin steady stream into the bowl of eggs, whisking continously while pouring.

Return the cream and egg mixture to the saucepan.

Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, just until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of it, about 5 minutes.

Do not let it boil. Remove from the heat, add the shifted matcha powder and stir well with a whisk.

Place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and heat for 30 second intervals until melted, stirring between intervals.

Add the chocolate to the custard and whisk to combine.

Cool the cream to room temperature in an cold water bath, cover with a layer of plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely cold.

Freeze according to instructions for your ice cream machine.

*One tablespoon of matcha powder makes a relatively mild green tea ice cream. However, if you really enjoy the grassy flavor of green tea, you can add as much as 2 tablespoons of powder and still get a creamy ice cream.
