1

Prepare the Nutmeg Custard

In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of whole milk, 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and incorporate the nutmeg.

2

Temper the Eggs

In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks. Slowly pour a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly. This will temper the eggs and prevent them from curdling when added to the hot milk mixture. Continue whisking and gradually add the remaining hot milk mixture.

3

Cook the Custard

Return the tempered egg and milk mixture to the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Be careful not to let it boil!

4

Chill and Chill Some More

Pour the custard into a heatproof bowl and cover it with plastic wrap, ensuring that the plastic wrap touches the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Chill the custard in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to develop.

5

Churn and Freeze

Once the custard is thoroughly chilled, transfer it to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 25-30 minutes. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until firm.

Napoleon Assembly
