Directions:

  1. In a heavy bottomed saucepan or double boiler, add the sugar, salt & evaporated milk. Heat until simmering, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low.
  2. Beat the egg yolks until light & temper with a 1/2 cup of milk mixture, adding the hot milk/sugar mixture a couple of tablespoons at a time, mixing well with each addition.
  3. Pour the tempered egg back into sugar, salt, evaporated milk mixture & gently cook until the mixture thickens & covers the back of a wooden spoon. Do not let come to a boil as the eggs will cook & curdle. Add the half & half & continue to cook until the mixture thickens again.
  4. Remove from heat, add the very ripe banana (whole or chunked is fine), vanilla & whipping cream.
  5. Cool, stirring gently (no need to break up banana). When it cools to room temp, cover & chill in fridge at least 4 hours to overnight. Remove the banana & snack on it (cook's treat).
  6. Churn in your ice cream maker's canister according to how it works. As it churns, take the remaining bananas, slice & toss with lemon juice & add them in during the final minute or so of churning.
  7. Serve immediately or ripen several hours in the freezer - banana flavor increases with ripening. Enjoy.
