INSTRUCTIONS
Split vanilla bean. In a small heavy saucepan bring milk and vanilla
bean halves just to a boil and remove pan from heat. Scrape seeds
from vanilla bean halves into milk and reserve pod for another use.
In a bowl whisk together yolks and sugar. Add milk in a stream,
whisking, and transfer custard to pan. Cook custard over moderately
low heat, stirring, until thickened slightly and a thermometer
registers 170 degrees. Remove pan from heat and stir in Calvados.
Pour custard through a fine sieve into a metal bowl set in a large
bowl of ice and cold water and cool, stirring occasionally, until
cold.
Sauce may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, its surface covered with
plastic wrap.
Yield: about 2 1/2 cups
