Stir the boiling milk into the egg yolk mixture, pour everything back into the pot, remove the vanilla pod and cook over low heat with a wooden spoon, stirring until the custard thickens; it must never boil again.

Melt chopped couverture chocolate in a double boiler, let it cool slightly and mix it with about half of the vanilla ice cream mixture.
