Ingredients
- 2 Cups California golden raisins
- 1 Cup dark rum
- 1 vanilla beans
- 10 egg yolks
- 3/4 Cup sugar
- 2 Tablespoons arrowroot
- 4 Cups half and half
Procedure
Measure raisins into a stainless steel bowl. Warm rum and pour over raisins. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 2 hours. Then, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into mixer bowl and add egg yolks, sugar and arrowroot; beat with whisk attachment until pale yellow and ribbons form. Combine vanilla pod with half-and half in a heavy saucepan and heat to scalding. Slowly stir 1 cup of hot half-and-half into egg mixture. Return all to pan with remaining hot half-and half. Heat and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture coats back of a spoon. Strain into a bowl set over an ice water; stir occasionally until cool. Drain raisins and fold into mixture; chill. Store in refrigerator. Serve cold.
