Ginger ice cream recipe

1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup sugar
3 egg yolks
1 Tbsp. finely chopped crystallized ginger(I love this so I use more)
Syrup:
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. grated, peeled, fresh ginger root
To make Syrup:
In pan, simmer water, sugar, and fresh ginger 3-4 min., stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool 5 min.
To make Ice Cream:
In another pan, scald milk and cream (don't boil). Remove from heat and stir in remaining sugar and the syrup.
Set aside 15 min. to let flavors blend. Then strain ginger solids from milk mixture. Whisk in the egg yolks and
crystallized ginger. Return to heat(use either double boiler or heat diffuser.) Heat gently, stirring constantly, until it
becomes a thin custard. Don't allow it to simmer or boil. Cool mixture and freeze according to instructions.
