Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with ice and a little water, placing a medium bowl within it.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  3. In a saucepan, heat the orange blossom honey over medium heat for about 5 minutes until caramelized.
  4. In a separate saucepan, combine heavy cream and whole milk and warm over low heat until steaming.
  5. Slowly whisk the warm cream mixture into the caramelized honey, then add to the egg yolks, whisking continuously.
  6. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook on low heat, stirring constantly for 5-7 minutes until thickened.
  7. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into the ice bath, stirring occasionally as it cools.
  8. Whisk in the crème fraîche and salt until smooth.
  9. Chill the custard in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  10. Pour the chilled custard into the ice cream maker and churn for 20-25 minutes until soft-serve consistency.
  11. Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container, smooth the top, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
  12. Serve by letting the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly before scooping.
