Pour the vanilla custard through a fine strainer into another pot* and chill completely in a sink full of ice, stirring here and there this should take about 1 hour. Stir constantly until the custard thickens and leaves a path on the back of a spoon when you run your finger across it, about 10 to 12 minutes (do not let boil.) Return this back to the rest of the cream in the saucepan and turn the heat to medium-low. Using a large ladle or measuring cup, temper the eggs by gradually whisking in about 4 cups of the hot cream mixture.

Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of sugar and continue to whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved and the eggs are thick and pale yellow about 6 minutes. In the meantime, combine the egg yolks in a large mixing bowl and blend them lightly with a wire whisk. Shut off the heat, cover the pot, and allow the cream mixture to steep for 15 minutes to further infuse the vanilla flavor. Ideally, the temperature should reach 175 degrees F (just below scalding) for a smooth-textured ice cream this should take about 15 minutes. Place the cream mixture over medium heat, and bring up to a simmer stirring with a wooden spoon to dissolve the sugar.
