1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup water
8 egg yolks
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 quart heavy cream
Pure vanilla extract to taste
Boil sugar and water rapidly for 5 minutes. Cool. Beat egg yolks on top of a double boiler and whip into the syrup gradually. Add vanilla bean, and cook custard over very hot, but not boiling water, stirring constantly, until it becomes creamy and thick. Remove vanilla bean, and squeeze, pressing out seeds. Rub custard through a sieve and stir over a bowl of ice water until it cools.
Whip 1-quart heavy cream until it is stiff enough to hold a shape, add vanilla extract to taste, and fold the cream into the cooled custard.
