  • 5 Egg Yolks
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 11/2 cups Heavy Cream
  • ¾ cup grape Juice(no sugar added)

  1. Heat 1 cup of the milk, salt, and the sugar in a small saucepan to steaming, stirring to dissolve the sugar. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Pour ¼ of the milk mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly until smooth. Pour the tempered egg yolk into the saucepan and stir constantly over medium/high heat until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Remove from heat and pour into a bowl.
