Step-by-Step Instructions for Burnt Honey Ice Cream
- Prepare an ice bath with a large bowl of ice water and place a medium bowl with a fine-mesh strainer inside.
- Whisk together egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a saucepan, caramelize the honey over medium heat for about 5 minutes until dark amber.
- Warm the heavy cream and whole milk in another saucepan until steaming, about 5 minutes.
- Gradually whisk the warm cream and milk into the caramelized honey to blend.
- Pour the honey and cream mixture into the egg yolks while whisking continuously.
- Cook the combined mixture over medium-low heat, stirring until it thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.
- Strain the thickened custard into the bowl in the ice bath, whisk in crème fraîche and salt.
- Chill the custard for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, in the refrigerator.
- Churn the chilled custard in the ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Transfer to an airtight container, freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes
Ensure the honey is monitored closely to prevent burning and allow the custard to chill adequately for the best flavor.
