Ingredients
- 3 1/4 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 10 stems lemongrass (bottom third only, tough outer layers removed), lightly smashed

Instructions
- Fill a sink or large stainless steel bowl with ice and arrange a second slightly smaller bowl on top of the ice.
- In a heavy medium saucepan over moderate heat, combine the milk, cream, sugar, lemongrass, and lemon zest. Cook, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 °F. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into the stainless-steel bowl set over ice. Let the mixture cool, whisking occasionally, until chilled.
