Corn Ice Cream

  1. Plan ahead: Make sure the bowl of your ice cream machine is in the freezer for at least 24 hours before you churn.
  2. Combine the cream, milk, sugar, and salt in a saucepan and set over medium-low heat. Meanwhile, cut the kernels off the cobs of corn, then break each naked cob in half. Add the kernels and cobs to the cream mixture. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat, cover, and let steep for an hour.
  3. Remove and discard the cobs. Add the mixture to a blender. Remove the keyhole from the lid. After you close the lid of the blender, top firmly with a kitchen towel that you don't mind getting dirty. Blend on high speed until the mixture is as smooth as possible.
  4. Return this to the saucepan, again over medium-low heat. Add the yolks to a heatproof bowl and whisk a bit. Add a splash of the hot corn mixture and whisk. Add another splash and whisk. Repeat this until you've added about 2/3 of the liquid. Now pour this back in the saucepan. Continue cooking-stirring slowly but constantly-until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  5. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof bowl. Stir in the buttermilk and vanilla. Chill completely in the fridge.
  6. Just before churning, add the cider vinegar and adjust that, the vanilla, and salt to taste. Churn in an ice cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions, then freeze for a few hours before serving.
