Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat milk, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until warm, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Whisk egg yolks and about 1 cup warm milk mixture in a bowl; stir egg mixture into a saucepan. Continue to cook and stir until custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove vanilla bean.
Step 3
Stir white chocolate chips into custard until melted. Pour custard into a large bowl; stir in heavy cream and vanilla extract. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
Step 4
Heat raspberries in a saucepan over medium heat until raspberries begin to fall apart, 7 to 10 minutes. Press raspberries through a sieve over a bowl to remove seeds; discard seeds.
Step 5
Gently swirl raspberries into soft ice cream, creating ribbons of raspberries. Transfer ice cream to a 1- or 2-quart lidded plastic container; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, ice cream should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Step 6
Pour chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Place ice cream in the freezer while you cook raspberries.
